Hi Guys,
First time posting an issue here, so bear with me if I have left out any relevant information here.
So, my problem is with my wireless card, and the fact that my connection is running slower than a at a snails pace. Based on reading other posts on this site, I thought it might be related to IPV6, so I disabled it in the network settings, along within Firefox. I am still having this issue, despite disabling IPV6 in both settings. Furthermore, I am also having intermittent connection drops, which were not present in Windows. Any help you could give me is greatly appreciated.
I have compiled the following diagnostics:

However, it is still doing the same thing. upon disabling the wired connection, the above outputs look like this:
