Acer Nitro 5 AN517-41 Slow Download Speed

grknaks · February 2022

Hello everyone,

I joined this community yesterday with Acer Nitro 5 AN517-41 version RTX3060 graphics card laptop. But this wasn't a good start. I've been having internet problems for 2 days, and when I searched, I saw that I was not alone. What I mean by internet problem is that my internet is moving in an unstable way. Although I checked on many different devices,

I encountered problems such as sudden drops in the Internet, staying in kb, reaching the required speed after a very long time, even when there was nothing on the Internet. I tried different options such as upgrading, uninstalling then reinstalling, switching from 1.802.11ax to 2.802.11ac. In the driver that came with the first update, I could not reach the speeds given by the infrastructure. Although I am reaching the speed of the infrastructure now, the connection is not stable at all. Although it works normally from time to time, it can also drop to 200KB/sec and downloads here for a while. There is no problem in the upload. Seeing the negative comments of many people for MediaTek Wifi 6, I am not thinking of returning PC? Isn't there a different method?

@grknaks can you post the screenshot of your wifi speed in the wifi setting? You can try to restart the router, use 5GHz band.

I remember that I tried at 5 GHZ, but I will try again.

There is no option to increase to 5GHz on the modem. I guess it doesn't support. Although I get 16Mbps internet speed from time to time, from time to time the download speed is at full speed on other devices, but on my new device it may drop to 5-6mbps. Also, what I just noticed is that there are sudden 1-2 word sound words and instant ping increases in Discord.
