Onn 4K getting terrible 2.4GHZ WiFi?

by ReddiePenguin

I haven't noticed this issue until today as I was using my Onn, on my 5GHZ.

For some reason, when I connect to either of my 2.4GHZ APs with the on, it's claiming speeds like 2mbit-8mbit out of my 100mbit Internet.

5GHZ as expected gives at least 85-93mbit.

What's weird is, when I speed test both 2.4's with my phone, they give at least 20-50mbit each.

Mine was getting horrible 5GHz WiFi a few days ago -- I think one of my other devices, possibly my Bluetooth audio transmitter, was interfering with it from where I had it placed. I moved it away from that spot and it's working fine again.

Yep. Don't use 2.4. Both my Fire Sticks and ONN devices are useless on 2.4 but fly on 5ghz or Ethernet.

I am rather confused!

I simply removed a few apps and cleared some cache as the box was acting weirdly sluggish out of no where after I installed some apps. Even freezing a few times.

All the sudden, speeds are back to expected for 2.4/5ghz.
