So, guyz I have been using Jio fibre for almost 2yrs ,150mpbs plan. Speed was approx same for 1.5yrs but recently from 3-4 months getting speed aroudn 90-100mpbs only.

 Airtel fibre is giving 200mps plan at the same rate of Jio 150mbps plan, So i switched from Jio to airtel on 7th May.

The problem here is all the sites are opening smoothly on all my devices as they used to open on JIo fibres Except my laptop,

Laptop is taking  much time to to load websites like amazon, flipkart ,desdime and etc though Youtbe and Netflix are working fine as before.

Tried router restart,

tried laptop update

tried wifi reboot n passwd change n all,

None of the steps were of any help at all, Airtel fibre still lagging on Laptop but as soon as switvh t jiofbire wifi all sites are working smoothly,

Fed of this strange behaviour, had there been any prblem in my laptop, it would have shown same symtopms with Jio fibre

on the other hand if its Airtel fibre problem why is it working smoothly on all my smart devices.

Expert advice needed , Thanx is in Order 😊

Are you connecting to 5GHZ wifi or 2.4GHZ one?  Make sure the dual mode is active in router settings and you are connecting to 5GHZ one.

If you are already using 5GHZ, are you using any repeater or use the laptop far away from router?

I think i can understand the reason behind this strange behavior of your laptop. Check signal strength of Airtel wifi (both 2.4 and 5 GHz), repeat it with jio fiber if possible. Then check website loading speed over LAN connection, if there is no issue with LAN then weak wifi signal is culprit here. Check and report here.

weak signal shall not give 24-25mb download speed, even 4k video playing easily, only issue coming via browsing

Connect your mobile to your Airtel network and using that mobile, make a hotspot over Wi-Fi and connect to that mobile hotspot (if your mobile supports) otherwise try doing USB tethering via mobile(turn off laptop Wi-Fi)  and see if that improves your browsing speed on laptop, if it does then there's some configuration problem in your Airtel router.

The same issue happened once with my connection.

2-5 seconds to load simple webpage and downloads were just fine.

I adjusted antennas to 90 degrees facing upward and this resolved all those issues 😅

Could not figure out for straight two days before realising that antenna position is messed up and not in original state.

could you please do one more hassle of replying to my noob reply? kindly share your wifi card name of laptop. 

also do you use Bluetooth simultaneously on lappy while browsing? if yes try switching it off and then try browsing. Just speculating as i had similar problem with my laptop. 🥰

If you can make a bootable linux usb (pretty easy) with something like puppylinux, boot you laptop with it and check connecting in wifi with both Jio and Airtel.

Problem solved guyz, unable to edit the post title edit option not working,

from all your expert suggestion it came down the conclusion that the router was faulty, though it took several attempts to make airtel beleive that the router they gave was a faulty one,

router chnaged today and everything working fine now,

tnx to ul all 😄
