One laptop running very slow after replacing wireless router
I recently purchased and set-up a new TP-Link dual-band wireless router. I have 3 laptops and two cellphones in the house. Currently I have one laptop (Mac) connected to the 5mhz band running great. My other two laptops and cellphones are all running on the 2.4mhz band. The laptop having issues is running extremely slow on the internet and when I run speed tests I am only getting around 6mbps compared to the mac on the 5mhz pulling in around 27mbps. The laptop having the problem does not have a wireless card that supports a 5mhz (my fault for not checking this) but my previous router I replaced was a Linksys which is over 7 years old. Any insight or thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
