Internet Throttling?

Alright, I am now completely stumped. I have Brighthouse internet, 150DL,/10UL, and have been having some bad lag. I get 100ms on any game that I play, no matter where the servers are.
Been running several speed tests and I have never been past 60-80mb/s download speed. My neighbor is the Brighthouse tech for the area, just came over a few minutes ago with his little handheld
computer, ran the same speed tests, and instantly got 150+ speeds. Ran these tests for 20 minutes, then ran them on mine and I'm still getting half of what I am supposed to get.

I figured out that my ping is due to the hops in my ISP's traffic, cant fix that. But I think something to do with my motherboard is throttling my download speeds.
I uninstalled AISuite 3, used the cleaner I found here on forums, but still the same thing.

What do I do from here?

Uninstall any Asus LAN priority thing.

Done and done. Did the whole, safe mode-disable amd thing, all asus stuff removed. Still ****.

Is this fresh Windows installation or?

No, I've been running it for awhile. I just dont understand how my 3000 dollar gaming PC cant get the same speeds that some handheld work laptop gets.

Re-install network drivers (remove-reboot-install-reboot); check if you are connected 10/100/1000 (usually auto does this with no issues)

is this cabled or on wifi?
if wifi it can be the limitation on the wifi on the mobo.

I am on the drivers download page on ASUS, is it under the LAN portion?

Ok! Did the network driver uninstall/reinstall, nothing. Put a network card in the computer, still same speeds. Is it my CPU or something else that is causing my computer to just NOT ramp up these speeds? Every freaking speedtest I do slowly ramps up to 50's and then the file is done. I just dont see how the Brighthouse tech's little crappy handheld could pull 150 right out of the gate, and I've never seen triple digits yet...
