    I noticed that my LTE connection is faster to download apps and stuff compared to be connected to my home wifi. I know nothing is wrong with my wifi so lets not start that thread. anyone notice this as well?

    There's.. nothing wrong at all. Your carrier just has faster speeds on LTE than your home ISP. If you want it the other way around, then pay for better speeds or switch ISP.

    Looks like one is reporting in megabytes per second and the other one in megabits per second. I suggest you try testmy.net on both, with the same download size, and report back.

    Now, that's closer.

    Is the PC on an ethernet cable, by any chance?

    Is there a chance that the router firmware is fine for your computer but not updated enough for your Passport?

    Actually I am getting similar slow results both home and work on WiFi compared to laptops. Two totally different router brands and set ups. I haven't found a solution but I can concur with your findings.

    My Passport gets really slow wifi at times.
    That said, I just got 40Mbps in a speedtest. My wifi issues are random.

    I did some digging into this, and found it has something to do with my router. Since i have everything set to auto settings and mixed modes. If i lock it down in the router settings. it does get a bit fast speeds. but for some reason always wants to go to the lowest setting speed wise for some reason.....

    22.6mb download is slow? For what do you use your phone? Even when gaming you don't really need those speeds..

    That app is full of Sh*t, that a high and its slow. when i try and download an app bigger then 30mb it can take upwards to 10 min to get on wifi.

    I have the same speed test app and I'm not very fond of it. You really don't know which server it's using, how far away it is....
