Windows 10: Extremely Poor Download Speed

I've been having many problems lately with downloads on my PC (running Windows 10 Home). Internet speed is completely fine during most times, but when I attempt to download anything (games, software, etc.) My download speed is AWFUL and usually ends in an error. I have tested using speedtest.net, and download speed rarely exceeds 4 or 5 Mbps, while any other device in the house when tested gets around 20 Mbps. We have called our internet provider, and they informed us that nothing seemed to be wrong with our router. I would greatly appreciate any type of help possible and ideas/suggestions on what may be causing the issue with my PC. I have tried so many different thinks online and had no success. Please help.

WP8.1 Dev Preview extremely slow Wifi issue

I am running a Nokia Lumia 928 with Windows Phone 8.10.14157.200.

Since the update, I have noticed that the internet connection speed was slow. After checking my speeds with my wife's iPhone, which got 22Mbps download speed and 10Mbps upload speed, I was only getting ~3Mbps download speed with 10Mbps upload speeds, I
started doing some checking of my own. I noticed that my wifi connection, no matter where I was connected (at home, work, school) I had extremely poor connection speed. My connection speed on 4GLTE, however, is at ~20Mbps.

Seems strange to me that my upload speeds are "normal" yet my download speeds are almost useless. Is this a known issue or is this something you are working on?
