My phone reaches about 299.3 Mbps on the same Wi-Fi network, but my Legion 7 laptop only gets around 6.05 Mbps. The problem also happens when I connect the laptop to my phone's hotspot, so it seems to be related to the laptop rather than the home Wi-Fi. What should I check to fix this?

The laptop’s Wi-Fi card and the router model matter here. Look at the adapter’s link speed and negotiated band in Windows, not just the internet speed test. If the link speed is unusually low, try reinstalling the driver, resetting the network settings, and testing with the laptop close to the router. If performance remains poor on multiple networks, the internal Wi-Fi card or its antenna connections may need inspection or replacement.
