About 2 months ago I got an Acer aspire 7 (Aspire A715-75G)
(specs - intel core i5 9300h
gtx 1650ti
8gb ram
wlan card - Qualcomm Atheros QCA61x4a wireless network adapter #2)

and after some windows update, the wi-fi started acting pretty weirdly, it used to disconnect if heavy internet usage was detected, I started getting less download speed but normal upload speed, I got more and more ping in online games, It was pretty situational but most of the times it worked less efficiently, and most of all, whenever I conected bluetooth device like headphones, my internet became highly unstable giving less speed and more ping in game, I tried everthing including reseting network settings in control panel, flushing dns in cmd, rolling back drivers, using all the older drivers, uninstalling device from device manager, sometimes it worked but still gave me a slow speed

Here are the ookla speedtest results of the laptop and an old 2015 phone side by side on same position

Any ideas on permanent solution (except running a lan cable)

    Hi Jugalll11,
    1. Change The Bandwidth Limit In Windows 10.
    2. Close Apps That Use Too Much Bandwidth.
    3. Disable Metered Connection.
    4. Turn Off Background Applications.
    5. Delete Temporary Files.
    6. Use a Download Manager Program.
    7. Use Another Web Browser.
    8. Remove Viruses & Malware From Your PC.
