The Daily Mail said that scientists found that the speed of downloading data to the computer via the internet connected by wi-fi decreased by an average of 30% compared to a cable connection. The cause is determined by the internet connection using wi-fi can be disturbed by other devices, such as: microwave, television, remote control, mobile phones and other devices using wireless waves other routes.

The most obvious difference in speed between internet connection with wi-fi and cable connection when a computer interacts with large amounts of data over the internet, such as playing online games, watching online videos or downloading about large data. However, the internet connection speed by these two methods is not much different when surfing the web.

The results came after the research team of technology company Epitiro conducted tests with 14,000 internet users in the UK, USA, Spain and Italy.

Besides devices that use radio waves, other factors such as walls, doors, and home furnishings can also make wi-fi waves significantly impaired. So experts from Epitiro recommend that internet users should use cable connections when interacting with large data.

' Customers often encounter problems with internet connection using wi-fi when interacting with large data, so switch to using direct cable connection ,' JP Curley, a public spokesman. Technology company Epitiro said.
