My ping is 24ms, download speed is 11.52mbps, however upload speed is 0.52mbps. this problem has not been occurring for a while but ever since i have been getting this low upload speed i have been lagging in games and youtube videos have been buffering and taking a very long time to load. Are there any solutions to this frustratingly low upload speed.

If that doesn't work, try switching to a wired connection. Sometimes all it takes is a 20 foot Ethernet cable and life's problems are solved.

If none of this helps, try calling your ISP and ask about your slow upload speed and if it is in your plan. If not, ask them for help on speeding it to where it should be.

Also a few possible reasons why you may be being slowed down:
-Other People doing things on your internet
-Slowing of wireless signal by appliances
-Bad Router
-Too Many devices slowing down internet
-Downloads occurring while doing activities on the internet

There are so many reasons your upload speed may be bad, first try...

There are so many reasons your upload speed may be bad, first try going wired and eliminating other processes/downloads/devices slowing your internet. If it is still bad, contact your ISP. Good Luck!
