Hi, I've recently bought a laptop and I was really looking forward to try it out.
I have connected the laptop to my Wi-Fi network, but the connection is grottenschlecht, the maximum of the download speed is 9 kb / s
Although I have basically a weak Internet, but on my phone (and on my old laptop) it was at least 500 kb / s
What is it and how will I get rid of this junk?
Please ANSWER.
Do you have Android?
If so, then connect your phone via USB to your laptop and activate USB tether.
Mobile phones usually get better and better
Usually such a big impact on the internet is due to background processes, which can claim a lot of internet speed. Best open the Task Manager and go through all the programs. You can always see in the synopsis how many Mbps you use on your network. Close or uninstall certain programs that use a lot of Internet.
Sometimes it can also be due to the already mentioned background processes. Among the open programs you will find a list of these processes. Go through these and sort out what you no longer need.
Under "Startup" you can stop the start of some apps when booting, if you want. And under "Performance" you can click on the menu item "WLAN". In addition to speed and signal strength, you can see more detailed information about your network there.

However, it must also be said that your Internet is very slow and it is logical that the Internet loses significant power, especially with multiple devices. You can try out all Internet-enabled devices in the household and again measure the Internet speed on the laptop, this could now be much higher.
If your new laptop is a MacBook, you can use the Activity Viewer to see and evaluate similar information.

In some cases, a Wi-Fi repeater can help boost the Wi-Fi signal. This can especially help if you have a room far away from the router or if there are several floors and / or thick walls in your home.
