Hi, I am a newbie here, I updated my system, a couple of days ago, after an update, I noticed a drop in internet speed.
My wifi speed is 150 Mbps(5GHz) meanwhile I am getting only 30 Mbps (at max), checked through my phone and other devices, Wifi speed is fine.
I am on dual boot, so I tried it in Windows and there it is normal.
Already tried these things:-
- Update drivers.
- Downgraded to 5.13 Kernel and Upgraded back.
- Rebooted my device and wifi.
- Tried this speed test on ubuntu(I had it also on boot, ubuntu also have the same issue)
- Tried different browsers and speed test sites.
