What is your ping rate in ms?

Are you using wi-fi or ethernet cable?

Its around 11 ms and I am using wi-fi. Also my gf is using the same internet but her Zoom etc. works fine.
I think it is something to do with my laptop.

My computer also slow down. Because I didn't set up this one for long time. I think you should update your PC.

How did you check the connection spped from your laptop?

reinstall or update your wifi

check if your wifi is set to private network in windows

try the laptop next to the router

I usually try with Fast and ookla to check out my internet speed.

Did you try using an ethernet LAN cable?

Did you try using an ethernet LAN cable?

Nope, sorry! Not this one. For me fast is more comfortable and easy.

Hi - what computer do you have? This could be related to your webcam / drivers. What is "HS"?

Are you using a laptop with Optimus which switches between onboard GPU and discreet GPU?

Are all drivers up to date?

Please try using a LAN cable instead of wi-fi with zoom, discord,...

Sure if you think I will get better results using LAN I will definitely try. Thank you!
