Windows 10: My download speed is very low (below 5mpbs), while Upload speed is 100Mbps or more,...

I have recently upgraded my home broadband connection from copper pair to optical fiber of Airtel and am on a 100MBps speed plan. While my other laptop regularly kicks in 100MBps UL and DL speeds, while tested on Ookla speedtest website, this laptop DELL Inspiron model P24T is showing Download speed of 7MBps and Upload speed of 93.77Mbps.


There must be some setting issue why the download speed is getting blocked.


Can anyone advise?

Slow Download Speed

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft forums.

• I would suggest you to test the speed using any of the speed test website or app to confirm the upload and download speed.
• I also suggest you to reset the wireless router to check if that helps.
  
• You may plug in the Ethernet cable if available and check the speed.
  

Hope the information is helpful. Feel free to write to us for any other assistance with Windows, we’ll be glad to assist you
