[SOLVED] Wifi is only slow in browsers but when on games or downloading a game from steam its fast

[Kodyski]

When I play a game I get 10 ping and when I try to download a game from steam I would get 14mb/s download but when using browsers I get 140kb/s and opera said they're only getting 140kbs I also used a site called speedtest.net I get 200mb/s as an average

If your browser is slow, that might be a case of slow name resolution (DNS). Try using Google DNS. Here is an article on changing it on your PC -- https://www.hellotech.com/guide/for/how-to-change-dns-server-windows-mac
IF that improves things you should change your router to use Google DNS so that all your devices benefit.
