What happened?

Bridge network download speed is very slow in the guest

How can we reproduce this?

Use bridged network mode, try running speedtest : it shows only 2 mbit/s, while I can get 1 gbit/s on host.
Reverting to 7.1 improves performance to 200+ mbit/s, not ideal, but it is enough for me to not dig deeper.

None of the suggested workarounds worked for me.

Did you upload all of your necessary log files, screenshots, etc.?
