Yes, more details are needed, but (guessing) in general if you are still using 2.4GHz then you could/should switch to 5GHz and turn off 2.4GHz all together. There are more channels there and they do not overlap. You can see what is around you with iwlist: sudo iwlist wlan0 scan | grep -E 'ESSID|Frequency' A very common cause of poor wi-fi performance is channel interference in th 2.4GHz band and it may be that your neighbors are using channels interfering with your usage. Many access points have firmware misconfigured to choose almost at random a 2.4GHz channel rather than being nailed down to 1, 6, or 11. So in that case, if you can't move to 5GHz, it's best to choose a channel 5 steps away from your neighbor's. Failing that, choose the same channel, not an adjacent one. See: http://www.metageek.com/training/resources/why-channels-1-6-11.html Other factors that can interfere in the 2.4GHz range are very close bluetooth devices and microwave ovens (when running) Regards, Lars -- Lubuntu-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users
