According to multiple speed tests I have done, I am getting around 10mbs of download speed. Yet the internet is supposed to be around 1000mbs.
I have two cables and have tested them both on my PS4 and PC. Both cables give around 10mbs of download speed on both devices. The cables are same brand. Whats crazy is I have around 100 upload while having 10 download.
What is going on?
If you are not getting the speed you are paying for from the internet provider it could be something to do with Windows 10 or 11. I was to get over 500mbps but 99% of the time I never came close. The internet provider Spectrum said the line was good. My other pc was getting 570mbps and my cell phone was getting high speed when using the spectrum wifi.
I was getting under 200mbps and sometimes 300mbps on my Gigabyte Z97X-UD5H desktop pc from 2015 but most times in the low 200’s. It was a new install in February 2023. I tried the many suggestions online but the FREE program TCP Optimizer easily fixed the issue.

What is the physical connection rate of the ethernet? 100Mbps or Gigabit? Also, what model modem and router do you have?
