[SOLVED] Extremely slow wifi speed and high ping

Hello. I've been struggling with a wifi problem for nearly two days. When I connect my home wifi I have to wait for my browser to open google nearly 10 secs. It's same for all sites. Also my ping is very high.

 PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=1 ttl=47 time=386 ms
64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=2 ttl=47 time=374 ms
64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=3 ttl=47 time=299 ms
64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=4 ttl=47 time=315 ms
64 bytes from 8.8.8.8: icmp_seq=5 ttl=47 time=315 ms

--- 8.8.8.8 ping statistics ---
5 packets transmitted, 5 received, 0% packet loss, time 8ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 299.098/337.824/386.123/35.069 ms

When I connect my phone's hotspot, it's OK. But when i connect my home wifi, also other people in that connection start to struggle connecting internet. 

I tried;
- Deleting all my netctl profiles and creating from scratch.
- Resetting my modem.

Re: [SOLVED] Extremely slow wifi speed and high ping

I solved the problem. It's due to some lines in /etc/pulse/default.pa.

I removed the lines below and it's OK now.

load-module module-null-sink sink_name=rtp
load-module module-rtp-send source=rtp.monitor
set-default-sink rtp
load-module module-rtp-recv

I need to try that, too... I struggle with network speed on my linux install since month. Never had an idea about pulseaudio concerning this issues.
