I was having a similar problem. To play games on grid or to stream anything in good quality ( lag free) you need 5GHz wifi. I didn't know this when I bought the nvidia shield. I ended up buying a new router, because my ISP (sky) only supply routers on 2.4GHz. Tbh on 2.4GHz i found it very slow even on google. If you can, try to connect it to a friends router and see if that help. I am very happy with it now, it was well worth up grading the router. Hope this helps

I found browsing in general slow, YouTube and google still worked ok, but was just slow. Connecting it to 5GHz wifi was a massive improvement, it is very fast now.

Connecting the shield up the the tv and streaming was a big reason for me in buying the nvidia tablet. I liked the versatility.

With 15/10 there is no difference, and with 50/10 the difference between 2.4Ghz and 5 should be minimal

I have 50/10. The biggest difference I found when changing my router was the link speed.
