    I did a internet speed test over speedtest.net for both my gs60 2qe ( killer 1525) and samsung note 3
    my lap top is only getting 10 mbs and my note 3 got the normal 26 mb/s
    my laptop used to be fine, but something just went wrong with my laptop
    can anybody tell me what is actually wrong with the internet? thanks!!

    Would you like to elaborate as to what laptop you have? and what internet/wifi card the laptop has inside it?

    What wireless router do you have? What wireless band are you using (2.4ghz or 5ghz)? What channel within that band is each device on? Have you ensured there are no IP conflicts? Have you tried plugging in the laptop via an ethernet cable and testing that? What wireless drivers are you using? Have you tried re-installing them?

    Are both devices connected to the same SSID?
    Trying updating the Killer driver to the latest version to see if it helps.
