Most of my download speeds are being throttled with Premium

Based on your test results it seems like the issue may be at your ISP. There have been other reports lately from US-based users who were being throttled/having their traffic shaped by their ISPs.

 

If you've got Vortex installed, try increasing the number of download threads in the settings.
