Sometimes my internet connection to my Mac mini drops so slow that I have to turn off WiFi in the menubar, then turn it back on again, which resolves the issue and speeds are back to normal.
This only happens to my Mac mini - all other connected devices are not affected.
Connected via WiFi with other devices connected in the same room to same WiFi router.
Seems to be a Mac mini issue and I've no idea why it happens, but a quick WiFi switch off/on sorts it out?

Personally use Mac Mini and if am correct - the Wifi Antenna is on the bottom ( black round circle " so use it on its' side pointing towards the Router.
Wifi signal seldom if every slows down.
I could try that, but why would it speed back up again after I turned WiFi off & on again on the mini?
I can't that being an antenna issue.
Maybe, but the only other things I have connected is my iPhone and Ring Cams, which don't get affected.
