I have 1 gbps network but my download speeds are terrible since I installed Zorin on my Lenova Ideal pad 5
I have tried so much tinkering that now I'm just going to ask Zorin developers to produce a fix. Will you please fix this please?

If you have a Dualboot with Windows please disable fast startup at Windows power management.

Also, please show the terminal output of
sudo lshw -C network
It could be a driver needs to be replaced.

Welcome to the Forum!
Are Secure Boot and Fast Boot in BIOS disabled? Is this a fresh Install? Or do You use Zorin already a While and this Issue is new?

One of the first things I tried. Thank you. But it didn't do anything.
It's a fresh install on a previous windows 11 laptop. Secure boot is disabled.I don't know about Fast boot. But on Win 11 the speed was what it should be 800mbps around.
It's not a dualboot.

Try this
echo “options rtw89_8852be_git disable_ps_mode=y disable_aspm=y” | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/rtw89.conf
sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager
I tried but the speed is still the same. Thanks for trying.

We gonna try to reboot with an older kernel, do this
sudo grub-reboot "Advanced options for Zorin OS>Zorin OS, with Linux 6.17.0-20-generic"
sudo reboot
That could be something. There is nor Firmware loaded. Driver and Kernel are.

Still the same results with the generic. 
How do you add the firmware to this network adapter.
ok so we will try to upgrade to liquorix kernel
tutorial from @Aravisian
To use the Liquorix kernel:
Add repository
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:damentz/liquorix
Update sources and install:
sudo apt update && sudo apt install linux-image-liquorix-amd64
Reboot
