Why is my WiFi super slow on my computer but fine on other devices?

I've recently upgraded to a new WiFi router. It's installed downstairs and does an amazing job reaching my mobile devices, even working great from upstairs. However, my computer is struggling with incredibly slow speeds, making it nearly impossible to stream even 144p videos on YouTube, even though it shows 3 out of 4 bars for the signal strength. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

You might want to consider moving the router to a more central location in your house, or you could get a WiFi extender to boost the signal for your PC. Running an Ethernet cable directly from the router to your computer could also do wonders for your speed!

Check if your router is set to the optimal channels. Sometimes interference from other networks can slow things down. And if possible, connecting your PC via Ethernet will give you the best speeds!
