I am using ookla to test. My router is Netgear NIghthawk Ac1900 and my router is Arris Touchstone SB6183. My ISP is PenteleData. Any Ideas on how to fix? and raise my speed to around 30+ i should be getting up to 50mbps.

You need to test with a wired connection. WIFI has too many variables to find performance problems. An neighbor streaming on the same WIFI channel as you can cause your problem. There is no easy way to identify.
Do ALL WIFI devices have poor performance or just one ?
Are you using a USB "nano" adapter ?

i Am using a powerline adapter av500 inbelieve and i am using my phone to test also and the resulkts are about the same. My neighbors are all boomers so none of them are streaming btw.

Powerline can have problems if you don't have the units directly connected to the wall plug. The powerline units also have an ethernet plug. What speed do you get when using an ethernet cable through the powerline units?
The AV500 units are a very old technology. Performance with them was pretty poor. But since you only have 30Mbit internet service, they should support that.

Test your connection straight from the wall. I've had some powerlines 500av units in place for over 5 years that have shown deteriorated speeds for whatever reason (still better than nothing though).

i have resolved this now it seems the router was prioritizing other device over mine thank you for the suggestions you have given to me.
