For context, I just installed Fedora Workstation and I am dual-booting alongside Windows.

For some strange reason, download speeds are hovering around 200 KB/s, and sometimes randomly dropping to below 70KB/s. This occurs when I boot into either Windows or Fedora. Before installing Fedora, my speeds were usually >50MB/s, sometimes a couple hundred MB/s if the network isn’t very busy. This might be an issue with network drivers being weird since I’m dual booting, or maybe I need to manually install drivers for Fedora.

(for comparison my phone, using the same network, has >100MB/s download speeds)

EDIT: I’ve updated to Fedora 42 and network speeds are now in the MB/s again. Not sure what happened. Now it seems that when I install from “flatpak-1” rather than just “flatpak” speeds are great. Also, dnf install has good speeds now.

    Aside from this issue, Fedora has been great! Everything works as expected, UI is fast and snappy, and somehow the file system seems to be a bit faster too (read/write speeds are more consistent)
