Slow Internet Download Speed

Hi! I am new to Arch Linux, I am having trouble with my wifi connection, it does not provide me the exact speed that my internet provides(only the download speed, the upload speed is as expected to be provided by my wifi).

Re: Slow Internet Download Speed

Your wifi does not provide the exact speed that your internet provides????
What's that even supposed to mean?

Do you have issues w/ dowloads from a local server compared to a remote server?
Or do you compare your wifi to your wired ethernet?
Or do you compare some speedtest result with the "up-to" marketing garbage speed that your ISP promised but cannot provide because everybody is watching tiger king?

Please detail on the problem:
- what values fall apart?
- by what degree?
- how do you measure it?

Here's a bunch of test files you can check with wget:

Re: Slow Internet Download Speed

After moving to arch linux os, the internet download speed of my laptop is not as the same as it is when it's on Windows or other linux distro like Ubuntu. Though it has an internet connection but not as fast as before.
