I've been trying to find an update for the firmware using windows 10. Seems they all want windows 7, is there any help anyone could give me please.
I'm hoping this could speed up my internet which is woefully under par

imho, updating the firmware is unlikely to speed up your internet connection.
Is performance better with devices wired directly into the TG582n router instead of using wifi ?
If yes, it could be you are suffering from wifi interference or router is faulty.
This thread mentions using XP SP3 compatibility mode in Windows 10 on two files to successfully install the firmware update if required.

I have my PS4 wired in and PC is wireless. Both getting 7mbs of down speed but my router is telling me I can get 65.
Performance isn't better wired my PS4 will drop me in 6/10 sessions despite Nat2 and the wireless connection drops signal a ton.
I've changed channels to try and avoid interference made sure it's placements is strong, opened ports all sorts. I'm running short of ideas.

Is that 7 mb/s or 7 MB/s? (the capitalisation is important!)

First thing to check is what is your line capable of.

Are you on ADSL or fibre broadband?
Thinking about it, the TG582n on fibre cannot report fibre broadband line speed from the separately connected Openreach VDSL2 modem, so you must be on upto 17mb ADSL broadband service?
Are you sure you didn't perhaps misread what was reported by your TG582N. eg. actually 6.5 mbps not 65 mbps?
Only other thought is 65mbps could be wireless speed between TG582n and your wifi device.
Run the wholesale speedtester, and complete the 'Further Diagnostics' after the basic speed test is completed.
