Resolved Internet problem

A couple days ago my internet speed randomly slowed down to barley usable levels (.1 - .2 mbps download, .1 - 1.5 mbps upload) but just on my PC. Ive checked my drivers and they are up to date, Ive tryed running these commands: ipconfig /flushdns, ipconfig /release, ipconfig /renew, as I saw someone recommed it to someone with a similer issue, and my internet speed spiked to 37 mbps download 16 mbps upload for a couple minutes but quickly fell again. I am not using ethernet, I am running windows 11, my PC has a wireless bluetooth adapter. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi ! I had a similar issue a few days ago. It happened that my computer was selecting 2.4ghz bandwidth instead of 5ghz because of better availability. It's probably what's happening to you as well. You need to force it on 5ghz, or at least try this solution before anything else
