Why is streaming faster on my iphone than laptop?

I tried grooveshark on my laptop but it takes 1 minute before every song to load, so i tried spotify, same thing… But then i got spotify on my phone and it streams music no problem, at a great speed… Why is my laptop slow at streaming things? How can I speed things up?

My guess would be you have a bad Wi-Fi connection, but since your iPhone can use 3G and stuff it is unaffected by this. I'm not sure how to improve your Wi-Fi. You can buy some kind of router or something i don't know

You should update this question and include more details about your phone and notebook.
- Which phone are you using?
- What is the make and model of your laptop?
- Can you confirm that both your laptop and phone are on the Wi-Fi network? Can you confirm it's the same Wi-Fi network?
- Is your laptop connected to your network by a wire or wireless?
- Have you run a speedtest from both devices to compare?

Without knowing some more details about your devices, I can only speculate what the issue may be:

Option 1: Maybe your laptop and phone are connecting to the internet on different networks. Maybe your phone is using one Wi-Fi, or even the phone network, and the laptop is using another Wi-Fi.
Option 2: Maybe your laptop and phone are using differnet ways to connect to your wireless in terms of technology. For example, there's Wireless A, B, G and N. If your laptop is connected using wireless, it may be using an older technology, and it connects at a slower speed.

Really, these are just speculations and neighter could be the reason. More details about them are needed.
