Your PC's download speed varies depending on the device you're using. This can happen because of differences in network conditions, device capabilities, or how the connection is set up. The Ethernet cable isn't the issue, and the router being out of reach affects Wi-Fi performance. It might be related to your Wi-Fi card or the way your device handles the signal.

Steam broadcasts display download rates in megabits per second by default; you must multiply by 8 for Mbps. Speed changes significantly based on device count, router distance, and other factors. Wireless performance also fluctuates widely.

It could be the wireless card, especially some older models that cap at 10MB/s. You might want to verify whether you're measuring in MB/s versus Mb/s. Also, look into your Steam settings to see which download server you're using—they often choose the nearest one, though sometimes they select an unexpected location.
