Starting yesterday afternoon my PC started seeing an extremely slow internet connection, running multiple speedtests I figured out that the DL speed was abysmal, Ping/UP speeds were normal and unaffected however. Every other device on the network was unaffected however, only my PC was having this issue.
I've reset the modem/router at least 5-6 times, tried a different CAT5 cable, no luck.
So as I usually do with my of my computer problems I went on a google search binge (on my laptop since I could barely open google most of the time on the PC) I found a thread on here that for the most part described the same problem. However most of the people were lucky enough to find out a program named AMD Quick Stream was the cause of their problem I didn't seem to have the same luck as the program doesn't exist on my PC.
I tried a few other suggestions on the post, uninstalling/reinstalling my network adapter, some CMD prompt lines, no luck. Tried uninstalling my GPU temporarily as some people were having that be the case, no luck either. I've also even tried turning off my anti-virus to see if that was throttling it but that wasn't the case either, about the only thing I haven't done was a full virus scan (only reason I haven't is because I've been trying faster solutions first since the scan would take awhile, ya I know probably a dumb idea lol).
Now sometimes randomly my DL speed will come back to regular speeds, but this lasts a minute at most and by the time I run a 2nd speedtest its dropped already. This is what I'm dealing with 90% of the time:
Anyone have any other possible suggestions? Losing my mind here ><
