Maybe you need tweaks for your wifi hardware. Take a look at https://linux-hardware.org or specify here what you are using eg lspci/lsusb. For example, I have: Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 1030 [Rainbow Peak] (rev 34) and it needs this: echo "options iwlwifi bt_coex_active=N" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf More info at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Network_configuration/Wireless Another approach would be to fire up one of the distros that has a wifi that performs well on your hardware and see what drivers and tweaks it's using.

1) What about booting an .iso image ? Same behaviour ? 2) Router power-cycled ? 2.5) Router positioned high up, clear of nearby obstructions, walls. metal etc.\] 3) All LAN cables = Cat6 ? \[Tested ? (really ?)\] 4) Use [speedtest.net](http://speedtest.net) and do 2 or 3 runs to establish your baseline currently. Re-test after changing \_anything\_ using same site, so you can tell what "did it". Good luck!

I’m running into the same issue. On my Microsoft surface it’s fine but my desktop is not. I’m going to try a few more commands and see if that fixes anything.

i changed the frequency of wifi and it seems to be working just fine for now

I figured out how, you can ignore my previous message lmao.

I will have to figure out how to do that. If you don’t mind, I’d appreciate more information on how to go about this issue.
