Thanks in advanced for any responses.

Go to speedtest.net and check your connection speed.

If its slower than normal you may need to reset your modem and router.

that seems pretty bad...

Might want to try that before you do anything else^^^

Then what...

After I reset my router password.

oh by reset we meant just unplug them, then plug them back in.

With Direct Ethernet from Router into Laptop.

that at least looks acceptable (you'll have to compare with what you pay for, but it is totally believable that this what you should be getting).
so this is with an ethernet cable, and your previous tests where with wireless?
