Considering you have given zero information on your setup, I have no way of answering that.

Start by double checking you are reaching gigabit. https://www.windowscentral.com/how-determine-wi-fi-and-ethernet-connection-speed-windows-10

What speed to you get on your internet speed tester of choice?

Yes i live in Malaysia it says so under my dancing parrot. I notice that internet is much cheaper than say the U.S for example

If wired ethernet was slower than what you are getting when running test from a smartphone, then I would be worried...

what kind of area, rural area may have poor (unstable) internet speeds

also check which port of the router should you connect to for optimal speed

some ports are 100Mbit, some are 1Gbit

 

you can also check the speed with other devices, preferably connected using 5G if on wifi, 2.4G can only do 40-50mbps

some part of KL have unstable internet speeds

 

but yea i would say you dont need a new ethernet adapter, since it would make no differences
