Suddenly slow wireless internet speeds on just one laptop.

Since two weeks I'm experiencing slow speeds on my laptop, the speeds of my other laptops are fine tho.

Speedtest result of this laptop: http://beta.speedtest.net/result/6577820767

Speedtest result of my other laptop: http://beta.speedtest.net/result/6577805937

I'm not sure why this laptop suddenly has such low speeds, I didn't do anything out the ordinary. I'm not sure what is causing this, this laptop used to be as fast as all the other laptops I have.

I have the Windows 8.1 pro edition operating system installed on this laptop. The laptop itself is an Acer Aspire 5750G. The wireless network adapter driver installed is: "Qualcomm Atheros AR5B97 Wireless Network Adapter".
 
Look at your Windows Update history and device manger to see if there was a recent driver update in your wireless card.

Any recent AV or Firewall changes?

Have you run a malware scan recently?
 
Change the dns settings to manual using googles, 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
& then the cmd prompts;
netsh int ip reset reset.log Press enter
netsh int ipv6 reset reset.log Press enter
netsh winsock reset catalog Press enter
nbtstat -r Press enter
nbtstat -RR Press enter
ipconfig /flushdns Press enter and restart Laptop.
