Hi my wifi speed is so slow on the windows network status it shows 5.5 mbps when i got 15 mbps internet how to fix this?
I have a few questions before I can make suggestions to help.

  1. How many other WiFi connections are available around you? Is it a couple or is it lots?
  2. The age of your house and type of metal used in the plumbing and duct work.
  3. The location of your presence (i.e basement or penthouse of apartment...)
  4. The manufacture and model of the router your using
  5. The manufacture and model of the wireless card in your laptop, workstation or mobile devices.
  6. The speed in which you get when you run a speed test on a wired connection versus running it on a wireless connection.
  7. Do a ping test to your router (gateway gateway when doing ipconfig in CMD) from wired and wireless and compare the latency.
  8. Does walking around the house in different locations give better or worse latency tests to the default gateway.
When you test these things let us know and we will be able to determine what its coming from.
