Windows 10: huge MBPS difference windows/Linux

under windows 11 i only get around 20 MBPS on downloads i.e. steam app, but under Linux via the steam app it average 180 MBPS that's a huge difference. what is slowing my internet down under windows? also the fans run much more and faster under windows.. this happens even with a factory reset of windows.. why is my internet throttled down so much on windows? what eating the bandwidth ?etc TBH if it wasn't for the games i'd abandon windows. BTW its not just steam the speed test i run on the internet, its just plain fact i get 12 times faster internet under Linux, Why?

Curious about the difference beteen G5 mbps and the 2.4 mbps network

On one PC I get on the G5, 75 mbps download and 8.6 mbps on the upload and ping 114 ms (speed test)
On the other PC with 2.4 mbps I get on average 16.8 download and 4.6 upload and ping 21 ms (speed test)
Yet the speed between the 2 PC's does not seem to be that much different when browsing.
Furthermore, I tried to get the second PC also on the G5 but for some reason the G5 does not come up on the network list.
I was told that being on the G5 you get less interference using Wi-Fi.
Both PC's have the windows 10 OS.
I did reset the modem and I reset the network, but it did not make the G5 come up on the network list of the second PC, whereas before I changed mine to the G5 from the 2.4 you could see that both were visible on the both PC's network list.

 

Guide: How to enable, use, and configure SLI on Linux.

I guess the next logical step would be to report on the performance you can get with SLI in Linux. That'd be my suggestion anyway.

You will not notice any browsing difference with your fairly fast speeds. The difference will be when you download things.

The 5 GHZ band will often be faster as routers use more advanced technology like MIMO.

Not all wifi cards are dual band capable.
