My ipad is like 223 upload, desktop is 83. Windows 10, Aspire TC-780 16GB. Spectrum cable. Shouldn't the desktop be as fast or faster than the iPad?
 
Solution
Yes, irrespective of the two computers being compared, the one that's not using WiFi connection should have faster download speed than the one which is using WiFi.


It could be poor ethernet cable, or network card either needs a newer driver or the card itself is ready for replacing.


Back on the subject of drivers, it can also work the other way sometimes. A new NIC driver can have adverse affect on network speed compared to previous driver, so it's worth experimenting with a driver roll-back too.
