Glad to hear that! Just read through this, hopefully your new ISP won't be as pathetic as the previous, blocking you out for something stupid as using Mega.

What's your actual download speed?

my pc is at 4mb download & 3mb upload, but its old lol
Though, It's testing your Internet connection and not the performance/latency of your PC. It should register a better speed than that.

In terms of the result on your cell phone, It's a pretty good Improvement.
My pc might has old hardware, maybe it has a max upload & download speed idk

Make sure that nothing Is running In the background (example: antivirus updating), and then do the speed test.

Do you have nVidia drivers? Unusual I know. When I used my PC before my internet speed was odd like that, and it turned out that for some reason the nVidia drivers for my GPU were interfering with the download/upload speed. Fix was to uninstall them completely and reinstall.

Hmm have you tried using an Ethernet connection? It is awfully odd to have a higher upload speed I have only seen it when there’s been issues on a PC.

It's a lot better than what you stated earlier.

I experience the same with my upload speed on my cell phone (different ISP to my home network). My download speed Is around 20 Mbps, and the upload Is 30-35 Mbps. There are a lot of possibilities for this- one of which Is downloads are more demanding than uploads, hence congested by too many users resulting In a slower speed.

That's lame. Good luck with getting all of that stuff sorted out.
