Mac Mini & Slow Internet

Sometimes my internet connection to my Mac mini drops so slow that I have to turn off WiFi in the menubar, then turn it back on again, which resolves the issue and speeds are back to normal.


This only happens to my Mac mini - all other connected devices are not affected.


Connected via WiFi with other devices connected in the same room to same WiFi router.


Seems to be a Mac mini issue and I've no idea why it happens, but a quick WiFi switch off/on sorts it out?
