[SOLVED] WiFi Slow Doing Updates

#1 Post by NM5TF »

Have encountered a very weird problem.....when doing sudo apt-get update or upgrade, my WiFi slows
down to a crawl :turtle: .....this ONLY happens doing either 1 of the above...all other times it works as expected
at the correct speeds...speedtest.com confirms it is working correctly.... :cool:

anyone else have this problem ??? :confused: :confused:

this ONLY happens using MX 18.3 I have 2 versions of Arch Linux also in this box & neither version
exhibits this problem.... :bawling: :bawling:

Change the repos via MX Repo Manager?
