    Wifi detected but slow

    Hi guys,

    I just installed Kali Linux on my laptop but the wi-fi is slow. I tried many things during 2 hours to fix this problem but nothing changed so here I come and hope to see my savior.
    Well, I didn't have this problem on Windows 10 or on Ubuntu so I don't know what happens. This is the configuration of my laptop and network.

    33541H0
    Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3230M
    BIOS LENOVO H3ET72WW(1.09)Release Date: 02/25/2013

    Ask me anything if you need more informations, I'm sorry I just put the basics because it's too slow when I ask a request.

    Does anyone can help ? I've tried some solutions on the forum but didn't work.

    How far are you from your access point? The optimal distance for connection & speed is about 10-15 feet. Anything nearby that could be causing interference (microwave, power transformer, etc)?

    Any errors in the output of dmesg?

    Thank you for your answer, I just found the solution. It wasn't about Ipv6, the grub, interferences... etc as some persons suggested on other posts in the forum, I thought it was something like that too but I add to download the driver of my network card manually and it fixed my problem.

    For anyone with a similar network card, here is the solution :

    Have a nice day
