Hello.
Recently, I got an upgrade from my old, decrepit desktop (seriously, decrepit. it used laptop ram). This is my first custom computer, so I ordered from pcspecialist as I could choose what the pc would contain yet was too worried to put it together myself. My internet was never good with my old pc, always cutting out every so often, and I attributed that to faults with the computer itself. When I got my new computer, on the 23rd November, my internet speed increased drastically and no longer cut out. In the last week or two, it has dropped again. Thankfully, it hasn't yet cut out, but knowing I could and should be having speeds up to 10x faster than I'm getting is really weighing on me. My computer is connected via powerline directly into my router. I have reset my IP, disabled the WiFi adapter, triple-checked my ethernet adapter supports the speeds I should/was getting and have consulted techy friends to still no avail.
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
GPU: GeForce RTX 2060
Motherboard: Gigabyte B550 GAMING X V2
PSU: Corsair CV550
SSD/HDD: 1TB SSD and1TB Seagate Barracuda HDD
RAM: 16gb Corsair Vengeance DDR4 2400MHz
OS: Windows 11
Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
EDIT: I use Cloudfare WARP (started after my speeds dropped) and when I deactivate and close it, my download speed spikes for at most 5 seconds before dropping again.
