Extremely slow Wifi

Dell Inspiron 17 5000 series. Bought 9/2018. Now on Windows 1909 but problems started after the update to Windows 1809 on 7/1/2020

After installing that build Dell support advised to urgently update Qualcom QCA9377 802.11ac driver to 12.0.0.916.

I am fairly sure that this is when the Wifi problems started (not sure because I am mostly on an online connection) End of November Wifi speed was around 180.Mbps. Now it is down to 17Mbps

I have asked them to return to the older build  of the Qualcom driver to see if that solves the issue but they want me to call their paying helpesk. I have had experience with those guys. Buying a Wifi dongle will cost much less.

I hope I can get some help here.

Hi Dany,

I'm sorry but this forum is only for Linux drivers of QCA9377. Can't help you with Windows driver issues.

Hope you understand.

Thanks.

Could someone direct me to the Windows section for this Qualcomm problem?

Hi Dany,

We don't have a forum-based support for Windows products.

Thanks.
