I have a D-Link N300 router which I use for all the devices in my house. The wifi signal is pretty good for 1 tab and 1 desktop that are usually(always) in use. Someone in the house bought a Moto G cellphone, and that became the 3rd device at home using the wifi for accessing the internet.
The issue is that as soon as the Moto G's wifi is switched on, any other devices that are accessing the internet become very slow, to the point of hanging and not being able to access any sites. Once the Moto is switched off, the wifi internet access becomes normal and browsing/uploads/downloads are fast again. I have a good broadband connection so BB signal strength is not a concern.
Looks like it is an issue where a bulk of the the wifi signal gets diverted to the cellphone when its wifi is switched on. This issue was not there earlier.
I did access the online dashboard of the router and also read the (online)manual but there is nothing that I can find that pertains to the router's signal strength distribution.
I also called up D-Link support and they told me to update DNS to 4.4.2.2. and 8.8.8.8, also change MTU to 1452. But that did not solve it at all.
Hence requesting help from Digit networking experts. Please help.
