Bare with me because I don't know anything about networking really.

- I use a Gigabit Ethernet Cable (Cat 6A). I should be getting 200 Download and 10 upload.
- I fixed my internet this morning, and was getting 195mb download speeds with 10 upload for the very first time, when I was receiving 35 download for 2 years straight.

I'm speedtesting tonight and I only get 85-90 Download speeds.

Under "Ethernet Status" it says Speed: 100mbps, which I don't understand since this morning I was receiving 195mb, so I feel like I'm currently being limited. I don't know if this is of any use, but It says IPv4 is connected to the internet, and IPv6 has no network access. (no idea what any of that means). No idea how to fix it but any help would be brilliant, thanks.
 
Solution
I don't know why, but the ethernet speed of 100Mbit will limit you to 95Mbit throughput. You will have to dig more to determine WHY you are only getting 100Mbit link.
