Hi,
When you do a speed test. It tests your total internet speed.
When you download something, you are only allocated so much bandwidth of your total internet speed.
If you want to take full advantage of your download speed. Buy a 3rd party router that allows you to put in custom bandwidth allocation.
I assume you know who LinusTechTips is. Look at one of his videos on a really good router that allows you to do that. It will set you back I think it was a couple hundred pounds though.
I will try to find it if I get time and link it for you to think about it.
Don't forget too, you are also limited by your physical hardware. You would need a pretty decent CPU to handle high download speeds as well as the ability for your Hard Drive to write fast enough.
Although that said I assume you'd have a good enough CPU and you're on a either SATA or NVMe SSD.
If I've helped in any way, please give me Kudos and mark my response as a helpful answer!
Fancy £50 off your bill? Ask me how and you might just get it!
