LG tv making whole internet worse in the house.


IlikeCookies

Question

Hello, about 6 months ago my family bought a LG tv, I do not know the exact model or the name of it, but it has just destroyed the other internet connections when it is on, making my normal 50mb download speed go down to something around 2. It isn't just for my pc, it is for the Xbox in the living room too, as it suffers a little less than my computer but is sill a big and noticeable difference. I like to use 5Ghz internet, but 2.4Ghz is better for this, the router is closer to the TV if that is a question, and the internet in all my games just suck too, when the TV is off I have an average of 40ms on Overwatch 2, but when it is on I have near 500-600ms, Valorant is the same thing with average 20ms and when on its near average of 300ms, and I could make a claim about this for every games I've ever played. 

 

If somebody has an answer please reply to this.

A good router should be allocating bandwith. Try hardwiring the tv the router to see if its a wifi issue. My bet is that you have a either a router issue or an app on the tv that is using too much data.

There a few options.  One is to simply disconnect the tv from the internet by a) disconnecting from you your network via the tv, or  b) using your router to enable or block the tv internet access whenever you want to.  c) use your router to restrict the tv bandwidth via Quality of Service settings.

I recently bought an LG tv and as soon as it connected it started flooding me material I didn't want.  So I disabled the TV's internet access in the router, but still keep the tv connected to my wifi network.

If I need to stream material I can simply enable internet access for the period that I need.  However I find it easier to use a laptop and chromecast connected to the tv.  I then cast from the laptop to the chromecast via the wifi network.  In this situation the TV is "permanently" blocked from the internet but this setup still allows streaming via the wifi network to the tv.

      Hi,
      I recently bought an LG UK6500PLA TV (my first LG), but I have a difficult time streaming content (Wifi connected), e.g. Netflix series is streaming in low resolution.  The router is only 10 feet away from TV (but ethernet is not an option) and uses a 5GH frequency range.
      I have tried making a speed test at fast.com, for both the TV (through the Webbrowser) and for my laptop and iPhone. The speed test for TV showed 2.5 Mbps and my laptop and iPhone showed 110 Mbps. Can there really be such a big difference? I am starting to wonder if this might be a warranty issue?
      Do any of you guys have experience with bad Wifi reception on your LG TV or have any suggestions on how to fix it? 
       
      Br,
      Nick

      I have recently bought a 48 inch lg oled.  For some reason I am getting super slow internet speeds no faster than 10 megabits at the tv even though I have Fiber internet.  I have it directly connected with cat 5 Ethernet cable to my Internet providers gateway.  I tested  the same cable and port with other devices and I am getting near 1 gig of speed.  What gives 
    • By Bob17821
      I have problems with one of my WebOS TVs which looks like a speed problem, but when I do a speed check on my iPhone from just a few feet away the connection speed looks fine.  Thanks,  Bob
