I'll keep it short. I'm with TELUS and sometimes when downloading apps from the App Store it takes an eternity to download a single 10mb app. Other times, on the same WiFi network (at home) downloading apps is blazing FAST. 6-8 apps download at a super fast pace at the same time.

On LTE the speed is great and constant always.

With that being said, WTH is wrong with my iPhone/WiFi network?

The iPhone 5 is known to have wifi issues (like past iPhones). Nothing you can really do about it.

Probably not. You can search for the other wifi issue threads on here about the iPhone 5. There are many of them.
