I have an issue with my A53 getting very slow wifi connection. I have 1gb broadband with but only get speeds around 28mbs coming through on speed test. My old Galaxy A50 still gets around 400mbs. This is so frustrating as basic website take a long time to fully load. And I may aswell forget youtube or other video sites as fhd videos don't even load.
Does anyone else have issues with this or have a fix idea that I can try ? I have already tried all the usual troubleshoots that samsung advise.
Thanx

Same issue, WiFi speed starts to slow after bit, turning the WiFi off then on again fixes temporarily. Samsung A53 also, bought new in March

Came here with the same issue. Tried rebooting cable modem, router, and even rebooting the phone... Still 35-39Mbps on SpeedTest app, while my wife stood next to me with her iPhone 14 and got 239Mbps. THEN I simply turned the A53's Wifi off & back on again. Retested at 254Mbps!

Try turning the phone's wifi off and back on again. Worked for me! Went from 35-39 Mbps to 254 (which is about the best we get out of our home Wifi).

Good for you, sir.... Too bad, it didn't work here... Already restart the modem, the router, the wifi, even the phone itself... No luck

Not being a techie haven't tried much. But when I reboot phone I briefly get proper speed of 70 to 80 maps but usually it is less than 10 on my phone. WiFi itself is fine x box plays well .

So, did ANYONE (Samsung perhaps) come up with a working solution to this issue? Using A53 5G (because it came with my wife's phone) which runs ridiculously slow on wifi. Seems it only connects to the 2.4GHz side, even though I'm only in the next room to the dual band router. Can't turn off bluetooth as  I use a Constant Glucose Monitor than needs bluetooth, so that isn't an option. EVERY other device works fine on the router. Have reset router, phone, deleted network settings on phone and started again, only solution so far is to turn off wifi and use mobile data. Phone is 7 months old.

Dude this is F***ing irritating. I have the same problem but no solution. I thought upgrading my internet to 1 GBPS will be better. But now a new problem With this phone. And also no solution from Samsung. It has been 2 years since this you complained but still no solution!!!

The solution I found was to change phones. After an upgrade I got my wife's S22 Ultra and it works fine with WiFi (connects via the 5GHz side).

I tried Samsung, sent them fault reports, screenshots, video shots, and I got nothing helpful back at all, no recognition their was a fault, no "oh, we have a problem", nada. Almost drove me back to Apple (almost).

Looking at all the posts I think it's just an A53 issue as the S22 is performing 100% with both WiFi and Bluetooth running at the same time, no drop out, all good.
