From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

what network card are you using? are you downloading from the same websites that you get faster download speeds from on windows?
I’m using a laptop, so I would guess probably a built-in Intel one.
run lspci and see which wireless adapter you have
my network controller is “Intel Corporation Raptor Lake PCH CNVi WiFi” (after running “lspci”, there doesn’t seem to be any other network-related ones besides that)
all intel drivers should be in the kernel, do you have the iwlwifi package installed?
pretty werd because dual booting shouldn't influence download speeds
