I recently had this problem, and after getting a new router, and a visit from Comcast, the problem turned out to be a setting, specifically the QOS Packet Scheduler. I have no idea how that setting got turned on, but turned on it was. It reduced my connection from 290 megs per second to 4.5. Quality of Service indeed. All I had to do was uncheck that box and it everything was fine again. I guess Windows 10 uses different settings for the router vs direct connection to the modem.
Is your Windows 10 PC slow when connected to the router, but fast when plugged into the modem?
