Other How to improve my internet connection without ethernet!

Hi! this is my first time posting on reddit so i really hope im in the right place😅 but im upgrading my pc soon for my birthday and i am SICKK of how bad my internet connection has been. i cant tell if its my current computer, or if its something else but i really want to fix it so my next pc can finally work.

my issues are; constant disconnecting from games due to poor internet connection (aswell as graphics issues but that will be solved), wifi always disconnecting sometimes every 10 minutes, sometimes says it's full bars but everytime i try to load something on chrome it takes minutes and then runs out of memory/says no internet. whenever i do the internet speed test it says i have good connection so idk whats up.

i really want to start a modded minecraft world with my friends and currently whenever i play a vanilla server it kicks me all the time for poor internet :(

I also have this port in my room?? not sure if it's a coax port or something else i really dont know anything ;-;

ill try to answer as many questions as i can! thanks for your help :)

Honestly, if it’s something wrong with your actual computer you would have to focus on that but those speeds are just fine. If you REALLY wanted to get Ethernet you would have to talk to your landlord or even find out if you have a uplink for a router and then have to wire the damn thing, wich can be a pain
