Hello its me again pls I'm sorry. So It was doing fine earlier, until I did a speed test and although I am connected to the 2.4G WiFi, I don't have any internet connection. I am currently connected to my 5G WiFi rn but the WiFi modem is downstairs and it's slow compared to my 2.4G.

Also when I was playing Roblox with my friends, I got disconnected twice in a span of 1 hour.

FYI:

Take a look at the comparison chart. Which standard seems more applicable to your wireless environment and wireless usage? Not that one or the other standard is necessarily the best choice. Trade-offs are often necessary: for example, speed vs stability.

Objective is simply to gain more understanding about what factors are involved and must be considered.

May simply narrow down to each individual wifi adapter's real world abilities to effectively transmit (TX) and receive (RX). Closer = better? Perhaps, unless closer includes some obstruction or other form of interference.

Wired is preferred whenever possible.

Remember that they are primarily tools used for observation. And that any given observations do not require some immediate end user reaction.

Using and understanding the tools is a matter of practice. You are free to explore and get a sense of what information is being provided. Intepreting that information is a different matter. Being able to make comparions between Situation A and Situation B is the starting point.

You can easily find other similar links/tutorials. However, many are filled with "DOWNLOAD" and other buttons simply to tempt (or even trick) you into doing things. Ignore and be careful about what, if anything, you click on any given website. As you always should be doing in any case.....
