Internet speed - Double clutch - 03-26-2016

If I run a speed test on my laptop in the way of wi fi and get a speed of 4.5 mbps download, then I run a test with the same laptop but hooked up directly to the modem and get a speed of 10.3. Does that mean my router needs replacement?. Big Grin

what is your router model number and manufacturer ?
how good is your WiFi signal on the laptop?

how far away are you from the router?
where is the router located?


RE: Internet speed - Double clutch - 03-26-2016

D-link AC 1750 I"M about 25 feet away. The router is in clear view of all my computers. It's next to an outside wall.
The signal is -60 to -50 dbm on this app I have on my phone (wifi analyzer) The computer that is getting the same speed test result is connected directly to the router.
