Wifi

[kira101]

I just bought a prebuilt PC: https://www.argos.co.uk/product/9186...ckPR=plp:20:31
I plugged it in and realised the WiFi connection was very slow. There was also some antennae at the back and some other small parts in a bag but there were no instructions on how to install them. Any help?

the PC is in my bedroom and the router is on the other side of the house. I used to have an iMac in the same spot as the PC and it worked fine. The speed is seen speccy. Disabling bullguard didn’t make a difference

It is about 11 metres away from the pc. It is downstairs so it is passing through the floor. On ookla I get 0.12 MBps download speed and 0.28MBps upload speed
