My internet speed is acting up right now... I am having a really weird problem. My connection speed shows 200mb/s, but I can stream high-definition videos on YouTube, use Real-Debrid, and even torrent files smoothly from Steam at that rate. However, when I try to download a new file like the latest Nvidia driver, my download speed drops down to about 80kb/s. This has never happened before in my life. My ISP modem and Asus router have worked great all along. Even after resetting them back to default settings, the problem is still there. My DNS is set up with AdguardHome and it has been working perfectly for over a year. I also changed my DNS settings but nothing works differently now. Back when I flashed the new firmware on the ISP router a few weeks ago, everything ran smoothly without any issues. Is that possible? Could this be what's causing things to go wrong? Has anyone ever had an idea about why this is happening?

It's working on its own now because the internet provider's problem inside is fixed.
