I'm really struggling with my internet speed on my computer. I get great speeds on my phone and tablet, around 600-700 Mbps, but my computer only reaches about 50 Mbps. This low speed causes connection issues when gaming and while trying to watch streams on Twitch. I've replaced my network card and I'm using new powerline adapters (TP-Link 1000 series) that I bought for around €60 two years ago. I even tried connecting it directly to the router with a wired connection, but the problem still exists. Does anyone have suggestions or ideal settings for my network card that might help?

Have you checked if you're running a VPN? Sometimes they can really slow things down, especially if they're active on your computer and not on your other devices. Just a thought!
I once had a similar issue where Windows created a virtual network adapter without me realizing it. Disabling it fixed my speed issues. It might be worth investigating if something like that is happening to you!
That sounds interesting! I'll check for that tomorrow. Thanks for the tip!
Nope, I'm not using a VPN.
