1. Cable quality and connectors between grase and router. (Including any switch in between if any)
2. Port on main router (connect PC by cable to same port of router where grase is connected and perform speed test. The best, connect PC at the beggining of line, move cable from grase to PC you will test whole line as at 1. above) It is possible that some port on router are limited on purpose. Try other ports.
3. Network card on grase may be low speed
4. Wifi card or whatever is on grase LAN
5. Grase CPU power itself. Depends what grase HW is build on.
This above is the order I would check.

Thank you for your reply

Before I used a LENOVO T410 for the HOTSPOT system with USB 2.0 ports on which I connected a USB 3.0 network card adapter but I had no loss of internet connection. 
After changing my computer to LENOVO T430 keeping the same hard drive with the same operating system I noticed the loss of internet connection. 
I remember that my LENEVO T430 has two USB 3.0 ports, but when I connect my network card adapter to one of them, the second network card does not appear in the network interfaces.
Regards.

Hi David.  
You have to install the driver for the usb port 3.0

That USB adapter could be a problem, how well is recognised by linux if ever at all. I tried a couple of them. My previous configuration was running on Dell Latitude 5xxx with some dualcore intel, with adapter on USB2 for several years achieving 100MBps only. It was hosting in season tens of devices over 3 or 4 APs. Until it died. I could measure router speed on any point. But to be honest most APS or routers before or even today have no ethernet port faster than 100MBps.
Main problem with using the laptop was the electric power break. I never had a laptop which can be set to power on back after the electric comes back.
Here is my early work photo documented. It was one HP Compaq 6xx:

To be honest, I’m not good at testing and fine-tuning devices under Linux. I have to google first so I can advise you. So you can do it yourself. There are more commands for a similar purpose. Some older ones are no longer in use, and newer ones are better. Look for commands to list devices. You will need to see how the system named each card. It was typically eth0 eth1, but at some point it changed. You can then apply a more precise command to each device or card.

Magic word is "google". Magic tool is your brain.

Hi
its working only for the upload
 but the downloads are always the same. 
I tried to change the port for the network adapter but the USB 3.0 ports on my computer do not recognize the network adapter.
 If anyone has a solution  
regards

I suggested  you to check and  identify network adapters recognised by the system first and how they are named. Old command would be "ifconfig" if it still works on your system. Otherwise try with "ip" 
After identifying adapters, expected naming is eth0 and eth1 but could be anything else.
Then you may try ethtool command : https://www.thegeeksearch.com/how-to-use-ethtool-to-change-speed-duplex-and-auto-negotiation-settings-in-linux/

This has NOTHING to do with grase hotspot.  Any connection related issue is YOUR problem to fix with what ever service provider you use for internet access.  The idea of the list is for problems SPECIFIC to installing the hotspot.  I do not want to be flooded with this kind of trash being thrashed around.  Do it OFF-LIST.
 
Christopher.

In fact speed problem could  be related to Grase very tightly. Since Grase has very clear parameter to define download and upload speed for each group.
User asking a help gave just a portion of information which leads in probably wrong direction. It is not easy to offer correct help without getting more information.
I don't understand why such nervous reaction regarding this topic. This group was always quite helpful and pollaid.

Hello everybody.
Thank you for all your help with my internet speed problem. After checking there is a bandwidth limit of 8Mb on the GROUPS I have created. After removing this limit everything is normal. Thank you
