Question on unmanaged switches

I'm working with a relatively janky set-up for one of our users. We currently have it set up Ethernet from main switch -> desktop PoE phone switch (100mbps) -> unmanaged switch (100mbps) -> 3 different devices, including users PC. Windows is showing a 100mbps connection, but in practice is averaging 5, up to 10. Ended up putting them on Wi-Fi (360mbps) but obviously not an optimal fix.

My main question is if I remove the phone as a switch (put it on wall power), and have everything running through the unmanaged 100mbps switch (will probably upgrade to gigabit), could that fix the problem?
