networking - Wifi speed is horrible all of the sudden- Ubuntu 14.04

I don't know what happened but all of the sudden (about two days ago) my wifi is absolutely horrible. I asked my coworker if it's working fine for him and he says it's fine. I used Ookla's speed test and get a ping of about 8ms but it doesn't even finish the test. It times out. I get internet here and there but nothing close to even allowing me to use Facebook and Facebook chat. Here's some information for you.



eth0      no wireless extensions.

lo no wireless extensions.


wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:"My Network"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.437 GHz Access Point: 06:27:22:F1:4F:B9
Bit Rate=72.2 Mb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm

docker0 no wireless extensions.


So I tried to get around the wifi issue and plug in an ethernet cord, but it doesn't even detect the ethernet cord. Here's some more info.
