I have a OnePlus Nord CE2 mobile and my brother has a OnePlus 12. When I turn on the hotspot on my phone and connect it to my PC, the download speed in Internet Download Manager (IDM) is around 200-300 KBps, but if I download the same file using Chrome, the speed is around 20-30 MBps. However, when I use my brother’s OnePlus 12 as a hotspot for my PC, the speed is consistently 20-30 MBps in both IDM and Chrome. Additionally, when I use third-party driver updater software, the download speed is also lower (200-300 KBps) with the OnePlus Nord CE2 and higher (20-30 MBps) with the OnePlus 12. I also experience the same speed differences when using USB tethering; the OnePlus 12 provides higher speeds while the Nord CE2 provides lower speeds in IDM. Why is the download speed lower with IDM and driver updater software when using the OnePlus Nord CE2, even though both mobiles have the same SIM and hotspot settings?
