I’m having issue of extremely slow internet issue with my college wifi. It works fine with ethernet but on using wifi it’s highly unstable like disconnects automatically and also speed and latency is very poor. With ethernet I’m getting around 100 Mbps while with wifi it’s around 2-5 Mbps and sometime even less. The same wifi working perfect when I boots into windows on same laptop so it’s not a hardware issue. I tried searching on many forums with the same issue but nothing seems to work.
This issue is only with my college wifi. On using my mobile data hotspot as wifi it works fine. FYI My college wifi needs a login portal on intranet.
