Hello, for the past two days the internet in my house has been terrible, downright awful, unable to even load youtube videos, it gets so bad my phone won't even recognize it and says it is connected with no internet. My internet has been unstable in the past so I just assumed it be fine the next day. However, today I discovered something strange, the internet consistently becomes terrible when I turn my pc on and returns to normal as soon as my pc gets turned off. After some trial and error, I found its linked to my pc's internet connection. If my pc is connected by ethernet or wifi, the internet breaks down for all other devices in my house. Strangely enough this effect also seems to apply to the mobile data on my phone, it also becomes nearly unuseable. Any idea what is going on here? This only started happening yesterday.
