Wireless really bad

[Telchines]

Hello, I got new internet and now the only way that I can really play games and be in a Skype call is if I wire in. When I try to speedtest on wireless it starts off at like 23 then drops really fast to like 8. When I am wired in I get 55 then it stays around that. Anyone know why it may be doing this.

It's wireless.

Enough said.

I've been on wireless for 4 years now and can honestly say that, while serviceable, it is not as fast as a cabled connection (duh!).  That said, I have not had any major problems gaming or streaming because of it!

Unfortunately wireless performance is hugely dependant on your setup and environment so without knowing a lot more its hard to say, I'd suggest googleing something like "optimising home wireless" or something similar to get an idea of some of the things you can do/watch out for.

Yea we need so much more info in order to give a accurate troubleshooting step I don't even know where to start. Go ahead and rewrite your question back out, this time the long way.
