Question

Weird internet

Oct 22, 2015 1:20AM PDT

My laptop is connected to the a 40 Mb/s router via an ethernet cable but the internet is really slow. I went to task manager performance tab and my computer is bearly using the internet, about ~10Kb's so I don't know why it is so slow when it should have plenty of internet speed.
Note: Win 7 Pro OS. Asus GL552JX laptop.
Thanks
