    Slow download speed on Windows 10 computer


    For the last month or so, I have noticed that my Windows 10 PC is getting way slower than usual download speeds. I have a 400+ mbps connection and when I do download speed tests (speedtest.net, fast.com, testmy.net) I am now getting somewhere between 100 and 200 mbps. The computer is connected using cat 6 cable, so its not a Wi-Fi issue. I have another computer that I use for a Plex server and when I test on that computer I get 400+ mbps download speeds. I have checked for viruses and malware using Bitdefender, Malwarebytes and Ccleaner and have found nothing. I have deactivated all background programs and even tried testing in safe mode with networking and still get the slower speeds. I downloaded a utility called iperf that tests speeds between 2 computers, using my Plex server as the host and my other computer as a client and get normal transfer speeds for my gigabit connection, around 910 to 930 mbps, which makes me believe that the network adapter is working correctly. I have updated the driver for my network adapter. Uninstalled and reinstalled it from device manager. I have tried various settings regarding Windows update, internet bandwidth settings and Windows auto-tuning. Windows 10 is updated as well. I even tried a different network cable just in case but nothing seems to fix the issue. I had not installed any new software for a while before the problem began. I am a bit OCD when it comes to testing my internet speed, which I do it regularly, so I know the problem has been around for a month or less.


    I just wanted to see if anyone has any other things I can try before going the next step and buying a new network card and seeing if that fixes the issue. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    :)
