This problem is very weird, I turn on my computer and I get around 200-2499 ms and when I do a speed test I get way less mb/s than I'm suppose to get. after like 2 hours or so my ping and my internet speed comes back to normal. I don't know what to do.. Please help
 
Run Task Manager to see what all is running when you first boot up. Look for some application, process, or service taking an undo (relative) amount of some resource. May be a failed/failing attempt to "phone home" by some application.

Next after that, what network adapter are you using? Could be that something is loose and the initial connectivity is poor. As your computer warms up there is some expansion and the connection tightens up.

Inspect inside your case. Check all connections, cables, card seatings, etc. to ensure all are secure and snug.

 


How can I know which process is slowing down my Internet connection?
 
Start with the process Name using the highest % of one of the listed (CPU, Memory, Disk, Network) resources.

You can right click that process Name for more information.

May be tricky as the values may change and jump around as various processes share the resources.

You are looking for a process that, when it is using an increased % of some resource, you also see a slowdown in network performance.

Resource Monitor does much the same as Task Manager but provides a graphical representation and additional data that will help narrow down the culprit.

Your objective is to identify some process that either consumes network bandwidwith or seems to impede network performance.

Then the next step is to learn what that process is, what it is supposed to be doing, and what it is doing: E.g., some buggy app trying to "phone home" and gives up after x amount of time or attempts.
