lazy wifi? - Sprint HTC One (M8)

so my Wi-Fi gets 16 Mbps+ and my lte gets only like 1 at home however things like Facebook update images and videos much slower on Wi-Fi. and sometimes images don't load at all on Wi-Fi but on lte everything works as expected. no packet loss and better ping on Wi-Fi... so I don't understand what's going on

[Q] So about the wifi issues...

A number of people have been having issues with wifi, myself included. I keep going over my monthly data restriction. I want to know if this is affecting everyone or only a subset of people. If it's the latter, I'll call customer service and get a replacement.

Can you describe the issue a little more? Try testing your connection with Aruba Utilities.

don't know what the OPs issues are, but I just got the Moto X yesterday and it is not liking my home wifi. Every other wifi I've been on today (at work) has worked great. At home it connects to my router and shows great signal but nothing internet related will load. Everynow and then it will work only to stop working randomly. I have comcast with their ARRIS gateway.
All my other devices at home (roku, dish DVRs, iphone, ipad, GNex, laptops) work fine.
If you have a dual band router, set the frequency settings to either 2.4 or 5ghz instead of auto. I initially had inconsistent Wi-Fi functionality until I did this, now it seems to be fine. I have an Asus ac56u.

Just like tabbibus said, it shows great signal and has no problem quickly connecting, but nothing loads 3/4ths of the time. For example, I ran speedtest and it stopped partway through the upload even though it was still connected. I can't change router settings because I rely on college wifi.
So it seems like half get the issue and half don't?

The frequency setting is in your advanced Wi-Fi settings on your phone. Set it to 2.4 instead of auto and see if that helps.

That didn't work.

[Q] Wifi and mobile data on at the same time

In my Abo the mobile data of a streaming app don't count for the usage. So the streaming app has an unlimited data amount.
When i'm in wifi, the stream don't work well, because my parents are using the wifi as well, and our router isn't the newest one So I would like to run the streaming app always through mobile data to save capacity in the wifi. Is there any way to do that ?
P.S. I have root.
P.P.S. I hope this is the right place for this thread
P.P.P.S. I'm sorry for my english
Just turn off the wifi when you open the streaming app, that are only two clicks

Yeah I know that, but I want to use other apps simultaneously with wifi.
*push*
probably impossible, it will use one or the other when both are active, wifi takes preference over 3g unless the app itself has something to force it via 3g and bypass the wifi its unlikely

Data is showing bt page opening very slow
Check your ISP APN and try to set them manually.
Call your mobile operator and scream about it....They always work for me...After call, speed get back to normal, sometimes faster than normal speed (25 Mbps vs 18Mbps normal) xP
Slow internet have nothing related with phone

Wifi slow with lte

I have a weird issue when connected to wifi and lte on in mobile networks my wifi speeds are slow,but when I pull the sim card or drop down to wcdma in the mobile settings it goes back to full speed. I am not sure if the sim card is bad or if it's something on tmobile's end anyone else have this issue. To test put the phone in airplane mode and turn on wifi and check you speeds it really noticeable in the YouTube app or instagram.

I get the same speed in plane mode with Wifi on as I do with LTE on. Maybe some router specs? Im only using Wireless N, so if you're using AC I can't perform the same test as you.
I am getting slow speeds but I have the At&t model. I'm only getting around 4-5 down and 20 up and I have 2 of them doing the same exact thing. Both my old Note 3's and my S4 active are pulling 15-20 down and 18-20 up every time. AC dual router 2.4 and 5.0

same exact issue, when I am connected through wifi and tmobile LTE, my dl speeds are 120mbps and ul speeds are ~mbps, but apps in general take forever to load. I tested the same way you did, I turned on airplane mode and turned off wifi after and connected and it is super fast. I can't seem to figure out why wifi and LTE are so slow together.
I have a weird problem also, on WiFi at home I have full Internet speed on chrome and YouTube but on Facebook it won't load. But when I switch to lte data everything works properly. It's probably a WiFi setting but I didn't have this problem on my nexus 5 on WiFi at home

Try force stop beaming service and then check it out, as in my case it causes after it updates the beaming service
Has anyone found a fix for this issue?
My home wifi seems to cause massive lag for the bloatware version of facebook. Other apps have great speed and download times. However I have no issues anywhere else just at home. If I switch to 4G it runs just fine.

Limited download rate on wifi but not 4G

Guys, I'm facing a problem here that is beyond my knowledge.
I installed 9gag app last year and it works like a charm but lately a problem start to appear with no reason.
When I connect on 9gag using MY HOUSE WIFI, my download rate is limited to ~45 kbps.
I really can't use it. It takes like a minute to download a gif. Pretty much useless.
Interestingly, when I connect with SOMEONE ELSE WIFI or use my 4G INTERNET, it takes normal internet speed (1.5 mbps tops).
Now the trick: it only happends on 9GAG app using MY WIFI.
All other apps works flawlessly on wifi or 4g connection.... On PC 9gag looks fine though.
Tried so far:
a) reset modem/router configs;
b) app uninstall/install;
c) app clear cache/configs;
d) uninstall internet meter (who knows, right?).
Any ideas? Clues? Solutions?
