Can you unscrew the antenna from the network card fully and screw them back in, make sure they're finger tight.
They screw they don't push in.

i'm using opera gx right now and i got the free bullguard trial that comes with the pcAh, ok, that's odd....
Just wondering, what anti virus are you using? Do you have any VPN installed or any browsers like Opera or extensions like tunnel bear or anthing?
Can you right click on the network icon in the bottom right of windows, then go "open network and internet settings", then "change adapter options" and post a screenshot of the network adapters?

have uninstalled both and its not changed anything, made my ping worse if anythingOk, can you fully uninstall both of those, just for testing, then reboot the PC.
Bullguard has been known to cause networking issues, as has Opera.
I would recommend leaving bullguard uninstalled, the included windows defender is actually better anyway.
Once rebooted, go straight to windows update and force check to see if there are any updates.
What are you using to test connection? What browser?have uninstalled both and its not changed anything, made my ping worse if anything

rebooted and ran another speed test, still the same speedsJust reboot
In that case I’d contact PCS, possibly a dud card. The fact you can’t unscrew the antenna as they’re fixed means it’s not the usual card they use.rebooted and ran another speed test, still the same speeds
Cool, very much appreciate the helpIn that case I’d contact PCS, possibly a dud card. The fact you can’t unscrew the antenna as they’re fixed means it’s not the usual card they use.
Point them to this thread as they can see the troubleshooting we’ve done.
Basically we’ve worked out that:
Antenna are fixed correctly
Plenty of signal
Other devices in same location are getting 60Mb/s
Uninstalled problem software which could contribute to issues
No VPN’s or gateways throttling traffic
No background updates taking bandwidth
Drivers up to date
