    I'm using EA pass included with the Xbox Gamepass Ultimate to download EA games. It required me to download this EA Desktop app to do so. When the download started, I realised that the download speed is probably bottlenecked to about 2.8MBps (22mbps), while I should be getting speeds of around 15MBps(150mbps internet plan). No other application is using internet and network utilization is also very low. I've tried various workarounds like disabling anti-virus, using a VPN, etc. from reading other threads about this issue but nothing seems to work. I'd be glad to have a working fix for this.
