Connection problems

Post by RadRacer »

I just bought a new gaming pc and i can't download sim. My old laptop and everything else has fine connection and just this pc runs any internet programs slow. Im only getting .1 mbs and i get up to 30 mbs more on my laptop. Any ideas whats wrong? Ive been trying tons of things but i cant figure out what is wrong.

Your PC may doesn't have an antenna to "read" the Wifi signal.

You may need this or try to connect an ethernet cable

I always make sure whatever I'm gaming on has a wired connection. Wireless just has too many issues imo.

I have a wireless card/antenna on my PC I tried it when I first got it, terrible signal.
