Hi foxtrot_mike,
to get a true speedtest the first job is to connect the pc to the router via an ethernet cable. Run the speedtest in safemode with networking and use the TT speedtester not a 3rd party one(it saves them for us to view.)
I would also register on the talktalkmembers.com where we can help you further.
