Description

Laptops are experiencing slow download speeds.

Wi-Fi download speed is slower than expected.

Resolution

To resolve poor download speeds in Windows® 10, update to the latest driver.

 

  • Perform a clean install to avoid driver conflict with older versions. See article Clean Installation of Wireless Drivers
  • After installing the latest driver if the issue persists, you may need to change the network configuration for the router or client. If the router and client are using different wireless standards, Wi-Fi speeds will be limited by the lower of the two standards.
