    Internet speed way too slow only for pc

    I have an Eero wifi beacon in my room, and all devices (other than my pc) work normally, around 50 Mbps download speed, 15-20 upload. My PC has somewhat similar speeds, and should be able to run normally. However, whenever I try to play a game online (Minecraft, CS2, Fortnite, etc.) or even download something, the game functions really laggy (sometimes running up to 1000 ping), and download speeds float around 1-5 Mbps on average. This happens like 95% of the time (other 5% works as expected), and for those asking, if this helps, my PC is a Skytech Blaze 3.0 from May 2020 with 8GB RAM and AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core. If anyone has any ideas, the help would be much appreciated! Thanks!

    Hello

    Wifi for gaming can be spotty at times. I will tag some members for help.

      Let’s get your complete PC specs.
      Get Speccy; Speccy - Download Builds
      In Speccy, click File > Publish Snapshot (hit Yes if prompted to proceed with publish) > Copy to Clipboard > Close.
      Now you can paste that link into your next post.

      Speccy doesn’t show the Power Supply Unit so, if a Desktop PC, list the make/model of the PSU.

      Is Speccy safe?

        In my attempts, could not find the PSU even with CPU-Z or the base Windows specifications

          You won’t find any PSU info that way, there is no firmware in the power supply unit for Windows to interrogate.

          Pull off the side cover and you’ll see a sticker on the PSU with the wattage, make/model, etc.

            From the Speccy report; there have been 5 BIOS updates since you P2.30 version, and change your Power Profile to Balanced instead of High Performance.

            To prove it’s not wireless related, have you tried connection the PC to the modem via an ethernet cable? (even if that entails relocating the PC)
