You did not mention, if you tried running CCleaner to clean browser's cache, DNS cache and etc.
You could also try scanning with AdwCleaner which is focused on PUP, not always detected by AV.

Already tried switching DNS which didnt work.
However my brother has done a clean install of windows 8 and his internet works absolutely fine, he is going to try and upgrade from windows 8 to windows 10 at some point. Windows 10 just being stupid I guess. My internet if pretty ok atm as well after resetting...
Its just really annoying because we dont know whats actually causing these issues. I may do the same as my brother but I cant be bothered yet...
Ask him to check the version of the driver before he upgrades, and use the same one in Win 10.
OK, try to eliminate all unnecessary network stuff: Delete all network protocols except IPv4, Uncheck IPv6.
Disable IPv6, LMHOSTS, NetBIOS, can be done via those commands, run CMD as admin and copy/paste:
netsh int ipv6 isatap set state disabled
netsh int teredo set state disabled
netsh interface ipv6 6to4 set state state=disabled undoonstop=disabled
reg add "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip6\Parameters" /v "DisabledComponents" /t REG_DWORD /d "255" /f
reg add "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetBT\Parameters" /v "EnableLMHOSTS" /t REG_DWORD /d "0" /f
wmic nicconfig where TcpipNetbiosOptions=0 call SetTcpipNetbios 2
wmic nicconfig where TcpipNetbiosOptions=1 call SetTcpipNetbios 2
You might also use TCP Optimizer, which polishes some network settings.
