Overview

Alright, This may caused by two main problems.1- Your system suffers from your disk’s writing speed but this one is very unlikely. Unless you using a toaster.2- If you are using a laptop, it might caused by wi-fi power save default settings. I had this one.So solution for second issue, you have to close it but there is 2 way to do it and I don’t know which one will work for youFirst Solution:Open terminal and type :– sudo nano /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/default-wifi-powersave-on.conf (I choosed nano for read you can change it id you want)– There will be ”wifi.powersave = 3” you must change it with 2 but if you want you can choose from wich one is fits for you :(0): use the default value(1): don’t touch existing setting(2): disable powersave(3): enable powersave–Close it with ”ctrl+x” —> DO NOT FORGETSecond Solution: More dificult one related to first / You do not need this one if first worked.Open Terminal and Type:– iwconfig (That way you can see that Power management is on)–sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off (works until next reboot)TURNING IT OF PERMANENT:Go to directory /etc/pm/power.d” with typing sudo gedit /etc/pm/power.d (This may not exist on you system so follow these steps)–sudo mkdir -p /etc/pm/power.d–sudo nano /etc/pm/power.d/wireless_power_management_offAnd enter these on that file :#!/bin/bash/sbin/iwconfig wlan0 power off (Close it with ctrl+x)Then type this comment on terminal–sudo chmod 700 /etc/pm/power.d/wireless_power_management_offWrite me back if it worked and which one worked for you.
