Hello everyone, i have a weird issue, for some reason i get consistently faster internet speeds between bootable usb and fully installed system .
Fully installed Garuda, updated as of today. (obv. nothing was in the background while running speedtest, no torrents, nothing as far as i know)
System from Live-usb garuda-dr460nized-linux-zen-220909.iso using browser that was shipped with Live-USB aka FireDragon.
So what i've tried:
• latest FireDragon, Firefox, Google chrome and Brave, all of them gave same speeds within margin of error.
• diffent kernels - Latest Arch, Xanmod-tt 5.15
• Mitigations on/off
• tried on/off Power saving options
• tried on/off Performance options
• tried forcing 1gbit speed in the internet settings --> link negotiation
