Ok so i have this internet from the same provider for almost a year now, 500 mb/s, which means that i should be downloading games anywhere from 40 to 65 mb/s. Give or take considering i have 3 other phones and 3 other smart TV's connected. If none are running i should be able to download at at least 55 mb/s, and if one tv and 3 phones anywhere from 22 mb/s to 35. But here's the thing: Steam, even when being the single thing in the house drawing internet It BARELY reaches 50 mb/s and it only goes that fast so long, and the next thing i know i am downloading at 20 mb/s. And if any other devices are being used i can't even hit 30 mb/s with an average of 13 at best. These speeds are nothing to be sad about because they are after all quite fast, but i am annoyed that it doesn't run at full speed. When i check the task manager it usually says that the network being used is 200 mb/s, being 40% of available, and even when i set it to high priority it barely increases by 2 mb/s download speed, and it also crashes often to less than 10mb/s or just stopping completely showing 0 bytes/s.I mean what i said here only applies to Steam because on Origin my network never goes below 40mb/s with an average of 50mb/s and on epic games it stays on a constant 40mb/s, so it might be on Steam that it's downloading so poorly but anyways, any tips on how i can make it run smoothly even on steam?(The problem i mentioned with steam also happens on Chrome, sometimes downloading at 1mb/s, and not even rebooting my router or pc helping it). Otherwise ping is ok never above 60 ms with a solid 45-55 average)

Probably not because as i said it downloads with 50mb/s on Origin and 40mb/s on Epic games but on Steam i barely hit 23 mb/s. They are known to not have the best download speeds at least in my region so maybe it's just that. Wanted to know other people's opinion that's why i posted so thanks although it's not it
