I've had my TP-Link Archer T9E AC1900 network interface card for some time now and have consistently had slow load times for simple websites and sometimes pages wouldn't load at all. I just tested my speed from my smartphone and got 72 Mbps download / 13.9 Mbps upload however my desktop gave 21.94 Mbps download / 10.99 upload while the devices were side by side. Sometimes when I just can't stand the slow connection and nothing will load, I reboot into my old windows SSD and get flawless internet so I'm thinking this is an issue with my Linux install. I recall needing to use an Ethernet cable to download some sort of driver for my network interface card when I first got it but cannot recall which one it was. Also note that I use the firefox browser with UBlock Origin, Cookie AutoDelete and HTTPS Everywhere extensions which have not given me issues in the past. My desktop has a direct line of site to a brand new, top of the line router/modem but this shouldn't matter because when I set my spartphone next to my desktop, it got far worse speeds even though I have a pretty good NIC. Does anybody know what might be causing this?

The inxi output you linked is out of date as it is for a broadcom 4360 from Sept 2017.

Please post a new output:

inxi -Fldxxxz

[parad0x]

I must not have saved it a minute ago. I just updated the inxi output now. I just checked and I have the linux414-broadcom-wl driver installed if that helps.

So with my current inxi, if I do a grep for 4360, I get the same thing...

Please post a new output:

I say again if you would like assistance please post a new output.

[parad0x]

I just edited/updated my old ouput as of my last post. Do you want an entire new ouput post on that page?

[tbg]

Or here would be better

Thank you

[parad0x]

I'm sorry as I didn't mean to be argumentative, I'm just having trouble understanding.

[tbg]

Please install kernel 4.18 and test your connectivity under that kernel.

[parad0x]

I just upgraded my kernel as well as linux418-broadcom-wl and unfortunately, I'm still getting the same slow speeds. Took me a while to test it/ get onto the forums here because it wasn't connecting for a bit.

[tbg]

Follow these steps to hopefully resolve your broadcom driver issues.

Broadcom wifi driver fails to install properly

If your Broadcom wireless adapter driver is detected as "bcma-pci-bridge" or "b43-pci-bridge", your driver has likely been installed incorrectly. Examples: Kernel driver in use: bcma-pci-bridge Kernel modules: bcma Kernel driver in use: b43-pci-bridge Kernel modules: ssb If your WiFi connection is not working correctly you will need an alternate means to connect to the internet. You can use a wired LAN connection if your computer has a wired NIC (and a connection is available). The other…

Sometimes the combination of the DKMS driver and the linux-headers work better than the standard driver included by default. Just make sure you have the correct headers installed for the kernel version you are using.

[parad0x]

Thanks, I followed that solution since my chipset is BCM4360, restarting, unplugging ethernet, and checking every step of the way and needed to go through all of the steps. Unfortunately, I'm still having a slow connection with 8.5 Mbps on my desktop and 126 on my phone. I've currently got a fan on my router but unless there is anything else that can be done on my desktop, I may look into further router cooling and maybe even desktop cooling as due to my sound card, my NIC is close to my GPU.

[tbg]

That was exactly what I was going to suggest.

Router Setup and Troubleshooting Tips

Router Setup and Troubleshooting Tips: Before jumping into the full list, reboot your router and your PC/laptop, as they periodically need refreshing to work properly. Test your routers channel and frequency settings to get the best signal strength. Switching your wireless channel can eliminate frequency interference. Installing an Android app on your phone such as "WiFiAnalyzer" (Open Source), may help you determine the best channel to use. Select a channel with the least networks and the hi…

How long has this problem been going on.

[parad0x]

For several months at least. I'll look into further cooling then as well as read that article. I appreciate your help!

[tbg]

I wish you luck, and keep us updated.

Perhaps post:

journalctl -b -1 | grep wl

dmesg | grep wl

[parad0x]

Note that while my computer was turned on, I rebooted my router / installed another fan on it.

Perhaps try disabling IPv6 in Network Managers wifi connection properties and in your router settings.

I know this thread has been dead for a while but I was noticing slow network speeds again and ran a speed test with my smartphone and got 73.9Mbps then ran one with my desktop and got 4.36Mbps. Does anybody have any other ideas which might be causing this. It's definitely my desktop as my phone was right next to it during the test. My wireless card is a TP-Link Archer T9E AC1900.
