The Fedora box is showing the full 100 Mbps with a wired connection. 
Updating VS Code had been a problem with a lot of timeouts but it took 
seconds. The box had also been sluggish with sftp from other machines on 
the LAN but that was also greatly improved. 

The wireless adapter is a Qualcom Atheros from 2014 to match the rest of 
the hardware. It must be tired. It is 2.4 GHz. The Lenovo T480 has a newer 
Intel adapter that connects at 5 GHz and shows 100 Mbps down.

I haven't moved the Beelink to Starlink yet but it's also relatively new 
and probably will get the full speed. 

The 2011 netbook is also a 2.4 GHz connection but it gets 70 Mbps. It's 
not heavily used so that's fine.

I was hoping I could resolve the problem of the VM not being visible on 
the LAN with a wired connection but so far no luck. That's not a big deal 
either.
