    Slow download speed but fast internet


    Hi, I have an ethernet cable connected to my pc, my router supplies 1gb download speed but I get low speeds ~80mb/sI am using steam but it isn't a problem on their end because I got another pc and it gets ~600-800mb/s on an SSD for both the PCsusing speedtest websites also give me ~800mb/s speeds.I am fearing that it might be some sort of malware or something.Things I have triedSlow download speed but fast internet :Disabling other ethernet adaptersAnti virus scan no malware foundChecked proxy settings no proxyChecked DNS settings 8.8.8.8/8.8.4.4ipflush multiple timesReinstalled ethernet driver

  2. Fast Internet Speeds but downloads and whole applications very slow.

    Hello,
    I have started to notice that my Internet was very slow suddenly 3 weeks ago. I since then started to do anything what was also said in other threads etc. (e.g this one https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/fast-internet-but-slow-download-speed/1ccc54a4-184f-42bd-ae02-46e3234a6f2a)
    I
    have done multiple Speedtest all state that I have fast Internet (220MB/s Download 30-40MB/s Upload) but Download Speeds in Browser are for example way way slower. I was trying to download a Game (Prepar3D by Lockheed Martin) and it needed for 30,1 GB around 10 Hours. But not just Browser download speeds are awful but also Discord and any other Application using Internet is very slow. I also reset my PC 2 Times and it never worked. Hope somebody can help!

    Greetings from Germany!

    Slow download speed fast upload on Ethernet.

    Hi

    If a website has a slow server, a fast internet connection may be experienced but may have very slow download speeds. Download speed will be affected with the website server as it also impact your internet connection speed.

    You may try a test with other websites and check the results with the website that you are experiencing slow download speed.

    Meanwhile, kindly click on this link and find the post created by Santos_Rai
