Hello, I have a Redmi 32" Smart TV and I am using it since 2022. I have a BSNL FTTH connection with 50 Mbps bandwidth. I bought Motorola Edge 40 Neo in January 2024. Since then, I found that my internet speed on my phone on WiFi at times drops to under 1 Mbps causing the phone to be almost unusable on WiFi. And the other times, the speed is very good and stable. With rigorous troubleshooting, I found that my TV is the culprit. Whenever I'm connected to the WiFi, my speed on the phone drops to some KBps. But, I found that this issue is only with my phone as other mobile devices of my family members show only a negligible drop in the bandwidth. So, the problem is with my phone+TV association. I use WiFi calling on my phone for better signal reception and if my TV is connected to WiFi my normal calls also get affected. So, I connect TV only when it's needed and has to disable WiFi calling while watching TV. After watching, I have to disconnect WiFi and revert all the changes. This feels little awkward to me. I waited a few months for OTA updates for my TV and phone for any possibile fixes but without luck. Do let me know your thoughts and suggestions to get rid of this difficulty.
 
Throttle the wifi speed from router, put limit if your router console allows
 
If ur modem support both 2.4ghz & 5ghz means use 2.4ghz for tv & 5ghz wifi for mobile @Elvin Paul bro

Can you provide any article or YouTube tutorial to do that? I couldn't find a proper one. I use NetLink modem.

I will try that.

Sadly, my router has only 2.4 GHz support.

Better to replace modem to netlink 2.4ghz & 5ghz dual support or purchase lan cable use lan cable in tv before purchase first check lan port available & support/working in ur tv
