slow download with wifi - tried everything I could find

so as the title says, my daughters PC - the one in my system specs - is getting about 1/4 what the other wifi pcs in my house get. The only difference is my daughters PC has windows 10 and all of the others have 7.

~ I updated all drivers and BIOS.
~ read through various posts on the topic and made all of the suggestions (stopped auto updates, removed inherent throttling, stopped background apps, etc).

I am getting 4-5mbps consistently and this PC is closer to the router than any other PC in the house.

My other PC which is in the basement and opposite side of the house gets 22mbps typically. I tried swapping out the wifi adapters but it made not difference on either PC.

Currently using dlink T2U.

any help is appreciated

did a winsock reset, as found in another thread in this forum, and I am now getting 9mbps. Still half of my other PCs but better.

I also did scannow and it found errors but couldn't fix them all. should I post the log file here?

See if at point blank range the PC gets full speed. If it is, it's an interference issue or the signal isn't strong enough to provide the full speed.

I will set it up next to my other PC that has a fine download speed. Will that suffice?

^ up to you, but put them next to each other then run test for both

sitting side by side, my daughters PC gets 8mbps and I get 20. swapped out wifi adapters and got similar results.

Download http://www.crewetown.co.uk/wireless.exe right click on it and choose run as admin post results along with make model of router

okay but then why does my other PC get 20mbps with the same 75%?
