Gemini Air slows Internet Drastically

Just started using 2 Gemini Air devices a month ago. One seems to work fine the other one not so good. The situation is this, I have a 1G fiber service. The Gemini Air is attached to a new Samsung, after watching a ball game for about a hour my iPad which i use for work related things starts to slow. I generally have 650-750Mbps. I’ll check my speed and it’s down below 15 Mbps. I’ve tried isolating the Gemini on its own 2.4 and 5.8 network that hasn’t helped. When I turn the TV off my speed immediately jumps back up 650-750Mbps. Anyone run into a situation like this? I’m about ready to try something like Roku to see if problem still exists.

When you turn the TV off, or turn off the Gemini?  If turning off the TV is changing your internet speed, then it's more likely to be a Samsung issue. 

How are you connecting these devices?  Ethernet?  WiFi?  

I assume the iPad is connecting via WiFi to your home network. What happens to the download speed if you move the iPad away from the TV and Gemini, closer to your WiFi router?

Thanks for your reply. The TV is hardwired. I have been moving the router around to different locations. I’ll keep experimenting.
