My network speeds on my desktop are slow. Laptop is fine. All updates on #ubuntu 17.10...I'm using XFCE but cat /etc/*lease just says ubuntu, so I don't know. I think the laptop is running 17.04, but I just turned it off. If that's useful, happy to check.

Anyway, any thoughts on things to check? Could it be meltdown related? I suspect my cat may have damaged the antennae. Is there a way I could test throughput of the hardware?
