I'm using Chrome, but I've also tried Edge. I tried Tor, too, but test results through that don't really count.

It'd surprise me if it was the ISP, as they have you run a speed test to make sure you're getting the speed you're supposed to be getting. As for something throttling it on my end, I've tried rebooting into networked safe mode and doing a speed test, and I get the same results.

I've just tried these, and it's turning up interesting results. 100mbps half duplex: Speed test: 39.7mbps Steam test: ~40mbps 100mbps full duplex: Speed test: 78.4mbps Steam test: ~80mbps 1.0gbps full duplex: Speed test: ~12mbps Steam test: ~200mbps So I am getting more speed through my...

Thanks for your suggestions. Unfortunately, I'm operating a little in the dark on the Intel Ethernet Advanced Settings, even with the help of the webpage. It's hard to know what change will have what effect. I have tried experimenting with the transmit and receive buffer values, and I have...

Locally, I think. I just let it configure itself. The tests were run through Edge and Chrome, though, rather than Tor. I have run a test through Tor, and the speed was - as would be expected - even lower.

I don't, at least as far as I can tell. I've checked the proxy settings on Chrome and there's nothing in the "Dial-up and Virtual Private Network settings" box, and under "LAN settings" the proxy box is not checked. I once had NordVPN installed but don't anymore, and occasionally use Tor, and...

Cat 5e has exactly the same result as 6 and 7; 10-20 mbps on anything through a browser (speed tests, downloads), and 184-192 mbps (23-24 mBps) on Steam (I've added this to the initial post). I'll restate - I've tried different browsers. Using the ThinkBroadband "large file download test" I...

Yep. In the speeds I recorded, the steam download ones are in mBps and the speed test ones are in mbps. The main problem is the reported 10-20 mega bits per second from the speed test with the cat 6. The steam download speed is fine; I just don't understand why I'm getting that anomalous result...

The two phones connected to the network both cap out at 50something mbps, because of their own hardware limitations, so it seems the 10-20mbps is only the one wired device, my PC.

Hey, I'm having a bit of an odd issue with my network. I noticed I was getting poor connection speeds (advertised speed 200mbps), so I've been testing other cables and I have these results: Cat 5 (max 100mbps): Speed test result/browser download speed = 80mbps (10MB/s) Steam download speed =...

Hey, Yesterday, during a session of gaming, my computer suddenly (and I mean suddenly; without warning, error or noticeable GFX artefact) shut off and rebooted. When it booted back up, there was no display being sent to my monitor. Upon opening the case, I noticed the GPU fan wasn't spinning...
