Hello, I have a very weird problem where I am limited to 10mbps on both LAN and WLAN connections. It limits all downloads, YouTube, and browsing. I tried resetting the network in Windows settings and using CMD commands. I also tried deleting some apps like Sunshine, VMware, and NetBalancer. I put my PC on high performance in both the Dell Alienware Command Center and Windows power settings. I deleted all the network drivers and reinstalled them. I tried to change the settings in Device Manager on the advanced tab for the WiFi adapter, but nothing changed. I thought it could be some faulty Dell power-saving app or service, but after deleting all the bloatware that Dell reinstalls on every update, it is still the same.

And no, I don't have any VPN apps or leftover network connections. When I said I tried everything, I literally tried everything that could possibly work, but nothing has changed.

But for some weird reason, when I get very far away from the router, the speed gets a little higher, up to 30mbps.

I booted into a live version of Linux Ubuntu, and the speed looks normal there.

I can just format this laptop, but I have a lot of work to do on it. I have a lot of folders and files to rearrange, a lot of plugins, and other complicated work stuff I would need to reinstall, and I just don't have the time. Does anyone here have this same issue or know how to solve it?
