Why is my WiFi so slow even though Speedtest says it’s fine?

Lately, my WiFi has been driving me crazy—it's super slow and has been this way for about three days. I've noticed it's not just my computer, but my phone has issues too. Discord keeps losing connection, and Voicemod takes forever to start up. The weird part is Speedtest shows my internet speed is fine, but I can clearly feel the lag. I even had a realization that I could use an Ethernet connection instead.

It’s actually really common for Speedtest to show good numbers while you're still having issues. Wifi signal can be affected by things like distance from the router and interference from other devices. Trying out your Ethernet is a good call! It should give you a more stable connection.

It sounds frustrating, but you might want to check your latency. Ideally, you should aim for a delay of less than 10ms. This could give you a better idea of your connection stability. Wifi latency can fluctuate, so sometimes even if Speedtest reports fine speeds, if latency is high, it can still affect your experience.
