      Hi. I recently got a raspberry pi and installed retropie on it. I used wifi in the beginning but it was really slow, so i decided to use cable instead.

      My setup is like this:

      -appletv connected to router via cable
      -pc connected to router via wifi
      -raspberry pi connected to router via cable.

      Whenever i want to transfer roms from my pc to the raspberry pi, transfers take a LONG time. On top of that, the pc's internet is really slow now. Did the ookla speed test, and it couldnt even complete it!

      if i type route in the raspbeery, i get this:
      Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
      default 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 202 0 0 eth0
      192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 202 0 0 eth0

      Seems like wifi is disabled, right? (i want it to be disabled).

      pc's ipconfig:
