So I have checked this thread on the page which was marked as "Solved" but it is not really solved. What that Individual asked was that his Internet provider has promised him 100Mbps speed and his Speedtest shows him 10Mbps.
Here's more accurate and detailed explanation of MY current experience.
So I have lived at my old apartment for 2 years and my Internet was upgraded to 100Mbps speed, and I downloaded at 2Megabyte/s, so I have moved to a new apartment and got myself a new phone with it's own internet connection from my phone card provider. The company has "switched" my connection from old apartment to new one. so when I plugged in, my connection was no longer the same. So it was laggy and slow, we went to their webpage and the page said that we are on our 10Mbps basic package. so we were like "wtf". Switched to 100Mbps and nothing. called the provider and nothing, they even said it should be up and running. BUT, here's a good example:
- My home, TECHNICALLY, has 100Mbps speed, and Speedtest shows 1.92Mbps.

- My phone's connection has 100Mbps as well, but for some reason when I speedtest it it goes as far as to 47Mbps.

So yeah, "closer" to the modem has nothing to do with how fast your connection is.
So even if I use my phone's connection for my laptop i am still getting higher speed than what my modem does.
now the real question is:
Does ANYONE know how to fix this? is there some stupid option in the modem i have to poke or whatever is missing?
Used same modem on old apartment and this stupid glitch is only happening now, even when Internet provider customer support claims i have those 100Mbps up and running but I know it's not true because the speed was exactly the same as before we changed from 10 to 100, so where's the actual problem?
