My internet speed is 500/50 which i get on all my devices. However for some reason my wifi on my laptop sometimes is the full speed an sometimes drops to 250/0.4. I have tried to reinstall drivers, restart, flushing dns and all of that, checked task manager. Anyone have any idea on how to fix this.
#Laptop randomly gives lower download and under 1mbps upload speed

Could be an antenna problem, or you could be too close to your WiFi router
Closer than a meter can cause problems
Having a disconnected or broken primary antenna could do what you describe
See if other devices show the same problems. You can safely ignore DNS in further troubleshooting as it is not relevant.

When i connected my laptop though ethernet (usb hub), it gve similar results like 150-250 download and upload is under 0.10
on linux it works fine so i am assuming its maybe a software problem

what cpu you got? since i have seen windose in some cases running download on few of the cores for power/not messing with other programs when doing downloads since there some file decompression
mosty happens on hybreed cpus
on windose setting the progam proroity to higher vaules fixed it at least in the case i ran into it
