inconsistent internet only on my computer

[IBIubbleTea]

Hey...

 

For a while now I have been having some inconsistent internet speeds compared to the other computers connected to our home internet network. I have done a few speed tests on my computer and the others and it seems that my speeds are inconsistent,lower and higher ping compared to the other computers. Note that we are all using a wired connection.

 

Also... usually I use wifi instead of wired and that also results in inconsistent, lower speeds and higher ping. I have tried using another network card and that gives me the same results. 

 

I'm using a TP-Link Archer C7 V2 router with a 35/5 internet plan. 

 

Any idea?

Do the wireless cards you've tried use 2.4GHz or 5GHz?

Have you updated to the latest firmware of the wireless card, and made sure the router is up to date too?

lmao, I updated my wireless router to the latest firmware. I have already updated my wifi card to the latest firmware. 

 

I guess I read his comment wrong.

It depends on what router you have, every brand is slightly different. Google would be your best friend.

Okay.
