Abysmal internet speed with new laptop
New Hp Pavilion 17-de019dx laptop running Dual Boot Windows 8/7, both OS's are getting horrible internet speeds of 1-1.5 mb download/11mb upload. A 10 year old HP on the same network gets 11 mb download and upload which is what we pay for.
I've tried ipconfig /release and /renew, updating Realtek RTL8188EE wireless driver, Intel chipset, etc. but there seems to be some hidden cause. The issue remains even if I switch off the other laptop.
This same thing happened when I tried another new laptop on this home network last year, causing me to take it back because no matter what I tried I could not get the speed up. Any ideas?
I'd like to keep this great Cyber Monday deal 17.3" LED screen, Core i3-4000 Haswell for $399. But the net speed would be a deal killer.
