I tried closing other apps, but the problem persists.

I already restart my router everyday.

Thanks for the additional info here, frogtheme.

 

The performance of the Dropbox desktop app can decline if you have more than 300K files synced to your computer.

 

Can you try to remove some folders, using selective sync, to see if that helps?
