A family members android phone whenever it connects to the wifi makes anyone else using the internet incredibly laggy both other wifi users and devices connected directly to the modem. I have a 20Mbit connection. Centurylink dsl.

Doing speed test while phone is not connected everything runs fine but as soon as wifi is turned back on same speed test jumps up from 30ish ms up to 400+.

What can I do to stop this or how can I fix this.

Android phone is likely a slower standard, and slowing everything else down.

Depending on your router, look into enabling QOS to prioritize the other devices, and/or limiting the bandwidth for the Android device.

The other solution, would be to get a separate Access Point, and connect only the Android device to it so it does not slow down everything else.
