Long story short. I had Ubuntu 18 on my system. I installed

sudo apt install speedtest-cli

to track internet speeds. I have a log copied from the terminal of the output on various days.

  • Download: 8.86 Mbit/s
  • Upload: 2.24 Mbit/s (typical)
  • Download: 11.67 Mbit/s
  • Upload: 2.22 Mbit/s

Then I had to reinstall the OS. (long story) Then I re-installed speedtest. It constantly times out. I ran the command

speedtest-cli --timeout 60 

and the best result I could get is:

  • Download: 1.17 Mbit/s
  • Upload: 1.01 Mbit/s

AS YOU CAN SEE (A SIGNIFICANT DROP IN SPEED) Everything else, equipment, service etc. is the same.

How do I fix this problem without re-installing the OS?

  • What is the speed of your Internet service? Do you have QoS enabled in your router?

Are you sure you're using the same driver for your network card? Are we talking about wifi or ethernet connection? Please post the results of the following command run in a terminal: inxi -Fxzd
