    Disable QoS completely from Anti-Bufferbloats options, do you receive full speed then? I'm assuming these are wired and not wireless speed tests?

        It completely disables QoS so it does not control your connection anymore, sometimes it can be required to gain full speeds. Send a screenshot of your normal QoS settings to be sure its not a settings issue.
