Can we go back to basics, please?

What kit are you testing the speed on (old laptop, new laptop, PC, etc., and is the NIC capable of 100Mb/s+?), what browser are you using, etc.

Is anyone else in the house doing anything on the internet at the same time (streaming, gaming, downloading)?

You need to set up a base testing environment - so no one else using the VM internet (everybody’s devices disconnected from vm WiFi), run a couple of different speed tests, and post the results back here.

It’s difficult to help without full info.
