    Hi Palm771 

    No, VM don't have a stabilisation period for the speed to settle down.

    Even using the same speed test site when measuring the connection you will find the results vary. It will also vary using different browsers,

    You should do a speed test using https://samknows.com/realspeed/ which measures the speed to your hub and to the device you are testing.

    I tried different web browsers and found out that my speed better when using a different web browser.

     

    Thank you.
