There are several possible reasons why the internet speed of the computer is slower than the phone on the same WiFi network. Here are some of them:

1. The computer is connected to a weaker WiFi signal than the phone, which may be affected by the distance and obstacles between the computer and the router, resulting in slower speed.
2. The computer has other applications running in the background, which consume network bandwidth, resulting in slower speed.
3. The computer has antivirus software or firewall software installed, which may affect network speed.
4. The router has a speed limit for the computer port, which may cause the computer speed to be slower, while the phone is not subject to this limit.

Solutions:​

1. Try to move the computer closer to the router, and avoid obstacles that may affect signal quality.
2. Close other applications on the computer, and free up network bandwidth.
3. Check if the security software on the computer affects network speed, and try to temporarily disable it.
4. Try to replace the computer's network card, or use a router that supports higher speed.
5. Check the router settings, and see if there is a speed limit for the computer port, and try to adjust the settings to increase speed.
