How to improve iPad Air M3 internet speed?

Recently got my ipad air m3 and has been using it for only a day. I tried testing the internet speed on both my ipad and iphone, and my ipad has a slower reading than my iphone. My iphone has about 280 mbps while my ipad only has 70 mbps.


Already restarted and updated the ipad, but still no changes.

What else can you tell us?

Are the iPad and the iPhone using the same type of internet connection (both on the same wifi network or both on the same cellular account)? What type is it?

Are you measuring the internet speed from roughly the same location (with respect to the wifi router or the cellular tower)?

What tool are you using to measure your internet speed? Same tool and version on both devices? Does each device show a fairly repeatable speed?
