I am using a fully updated version of Linux Mint 18 as my default OS. Everywhere else, the WiFi is an acceptable speed. When I'm using my university's WiFi, however, the download speed is extremely slow, testing at an average of 0.7 Megabits per second, with the upload speed testing considerably higher. This isn't a problem when I use my Windows boot, and it wasn't a problem on Ubuntu beforehand. Any suggestions as to what is going on?
I'm using the Realtek rtl8188ee wireless card using Larry Finger's drivers found here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/452315/ ... e-on-14-04
