566461, Why do two devices connected to the same network have such varying degrees of dl speed?

Good day all,

I'm using my computer and my galaxy tab connected to the same network through wifi at exactly the same distance from the router through wifi but when I run the speed test on both with the computer I get 26 mbps download while on the tablet I only get 2.61 mbps download. Why such a gap in two devices that are both on the same network, both can access dual band... What should I be looking at?

Thanks
