Hello, I run Mint, or try to.
I have 1 pc 1 Laptop. The Pc has Linux Mint, the Laptop has Windows.
My internet provider has 2 Wlan lines here, one 2.4G, and one 5G. I was with both, laptop and PC in the 5G one.
Then the 5 G one dissapeared, but only from the Linux PC, its only in the 2.4g one now, The Laptop is still in the 5G. Also The internet speed on the linux PC turned to a crawl, while the Laptop Still has the standard speed. Ive tried disconnectic the Laptop completely, nothing changed, Ive restarted couple of times, nothing changed.
Also ive noticed the Windows Laptop sees like 10 different WLans around here, wheras the Linux PC only sees 2 now.
Is this fixable? Because I have no idea what to do, besides reinstalling the Linux pc to see if it changes something.
Any Ideas?
Thank you in advance.
 


How do to get WiFi signal on that PC? Is it PCI-E card? USB? Describe it, take a photo of the hardware and upload here.
It could be hardware issue which is affecting signal strength on that PC.

Windows laptop is not affecting WiFi on your Linux PC, you can leave it be. It works as intended, and it's not reason for WiFi slowness on PC.
