Big gap between Wireless and wired

At my job we have a Wireless network, which I am the one who take care of it (Changing password, changing names, etc). I was having trouble with charging a YouTube video so I did a SpeedTest on a wired PC and on my cellphone.

 

Turned out the wired connection would get about 20mbps and my cellphone only 0.1mbps

 

I tried Wifi Analyser and switched my wirelless to another channel and I get about 1.5mbps

 

What should I do next to get a better speed?

get closer to the router acces point/router

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

It could be one of a huge variety of things.

 

You may be very far away from the access point. You may have a large amount of interference (especially if you're in an office block with other businesses). You may have too many clients on the access point. The settings on the access point or router may be bad. 

 

Without quite a lot more detail, it's hard to tell you why it's slow.
