Anyone else noticed OneDrive being slow?

New laptop, connected via Ethernet, sometimes downloads go up to 5 MB/s, most of the times down to a few KB/s.

It took OneDrive a couple of days to download files to laptop, something previously in a hour or two.

Any server I could look at tracing? Could it be related to the Sydney POP? Any ideas for troubleshooting?

I actually had the opposite today. Uploaded a 12GB file, and it ran at 700-800Mb/s the entire time.

I noticed it being oddly slow last week, I took some videos on my phone in the office each about 500meg. They uploaded from my phone over wifi within a couple of minutes as per normal. The sync back to my laptop however (2.5G Ethernet connected to 10G firewall direct on the ISP core) took about two hours instead of the normal less than two minutes. It was noteworthy in being oddly slow for no obvious reason. Being directly connected into the ISP core there was certainly no local issue that would have caused it.
