I just recently bought a new pc, and despite having good signal (max bar or 1 off), the wifi is so slow. It also sometimes randomly disconnected. There is no problem with my modem I think, as my laptop and my phone can achieve max wifi speed at the exact location where my pc is placed.
I tested with mobile hotspot, and it seems to have no problem with the wifi speed if I put the hotspot close to my pc. So, I come to the conclusion that the slow wifi may have something to do with how far the modem is located from my pc. However, the frustrating part is that my modem placement never pose any problem to any of my devices before, like I said my laptop doesn't have any problem with it. What should I do? I bought this pc for mostly online gaming and it's gonna be useless if my wifi connection is slow.
Speedtest shows that the pc wifi speed is 0-1.5mbps, when it should be 8mbps.
my pc specs:
AMD Ryzen 5 3600
ASROCK B450M STEEL LEGEND MATX
ASUS RTX2060 6GB DUAL GDDR6
GSkill Trident Z RGB 8gbx2 3600mhz
as for the wifi adapter it's TPLink Archer T4E AC1200 Wireless Dual Band PCIe. And yes, I already installed the antenna.
I really hope there's a solution for this and my money is not wasted. Thanks in advance.
