I am subscribed to VDSL2 with 10 Mbps Download and 1 Mbps Upload. My sync speeds on Modem's page is 11264 kbps down, 1119 kbps. On speedtest.net, I always get same result all the time at any given day; 10.54 Mbps download, 0.92Mbps Upload which is about right. However, when I download from websites like Mega.nz, Google Drive, Steam, Mediafire etc. my actual speed is only about 1.1 MBps (In Bytes) which translates to about 9 Mbps (8.8 Mbps) which does not seem quite right. On the other hand, on Steam application, my maximum speed is only 9.6 Mbps as shown here:
SNR Margin and Line attenuation seems good though:

I use Ethernet cable connected directly to my PC, and also I am the only person who uses the internet. Is this considered normal in ideal conditions? Thanks.
1A download speed of 1.1MB/s translates to a line speed of 9.2Mbps. Download speeds use binary units, line speeds use decimal units. Accounting for a typical coding efficiency of 90%, it's more like 10.1Mbps. – David Schwartz – 2018-03-05T19:19:14.867
