    Slow WiFi connection - Ubuntu 18.04

    Hi,

    I've posted here ealier: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2392862 .
    It was successfully resolved but still I have one problem with WiFI.

    I have two OS on my laptop: Windows and Ubuntu. I have done speed test on both. Here is the results:
    Ubuntu
    Download: 3.68 Mb/s
    Upload: 6.83 Mb/s

    Windows
    Download: 109.94 Mb/s
    Upload: 30.22 Mb/s

    As you can see the difference is enormous. I have tried every solution from this page https://itsfoss.com/speed-up-slow-wi...ection-ubuntu/ which could be connected with my problem. However, nothing has helped.

    Here is my network controller
    Code:
    02:00.0 Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8821AE 802.11ac PCIe Wireless Network Adapter
    Every help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Open a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T in Ubuntu) and use the following commands one by one:
    sudo su
    echo "options ath9k nohwcrypt=1" >> /etc/modprobe.d/ath9k.conf
    Restart your computer and you should be good to go

    Hello amvitty and welcome to the forum, what you told this user to do will not work, the command you posted is for devices that use the ath9k driver and the OP of this thread does not have that device, before giving recommendations you must first now the device that is being used and do research to see what is most likely the cause of the users issue.

    Thanks
