It could be a lot of things. I do know that when they see your going to a speed test site they route you through a good path so your numbers look good. But it could just be that your downloading something that's on a congested path, or bad server. So do more download tests from different places.

This happens on every time I try to download something.

Try re-testing with speedof.me

speedtest has been cached by so many different isp's, and I suspect that there is some tomfoolery going on with those numbers.
