Re: Win 10 Speed slow
 

SAFE MODE--OOkla test---Server Wolvs--ping 14---down 208.92--up 14.93
Bristol & Cardiff is slower..
I have switched cat cables around plus switch box conections and no difference. So, me thinks it has to do with Win 10 and older PCs or a KB Update. Unless you know different of course..Thanks for the help...

Re: Win 10 Speed slow
 

Is this the pc you built yourself or the one you bought?

Re: Win 10 Speed slow
 

Downstream is 1.4 on high channels & 2.2 to 3 on lower channels..On Win 10 pc.
Funny thing is--my dbm/v is same on Win 7 PC..Very Strange is that as I thought it should be between 6 to 10dbm/v downstream & 31 to 55 dbm/v upstream..What should it be ??
NETWORK LOG always shows Critical & Errors..

General it is Win 10 Bought but use to use Win 7 until I upgraded
..My win7 is self build..

Re: Win 10 Speed slow
 

Downstream should be as close to 0 as possible so 1.4 is fine. Any reported stats will be the same regardless of the device you "view" them on because you are looking at the line performance of the shub connected to the VM network and not the pc's connection.

Have you had a look to see if there is a utility installed for your motherboard? I have got an MSI motherboard and as part of the drivers and software bundle which gets installed it comes with an app called something like "ethernet killer" which has all sorts of snazzy reporting features for the network card. One of the things it can do is bandwidth limitation and for some reason it is enabled by default and set to 100mbit. You might want to look and see if you have got something similar in operation.

Hi General Maximus---No, I got no such progy in my Win 10 with motherboard. I only use Speccy to show what I got. I will install "Wnetwatcher" as I got that on my Win 7 pc, to see if anything else is logging in or going out.

Re: Win 10 Speed slow
 

well depending how much it irritates you going forward (and I know it would bug me) I would do a clean install of windows 10, do a speed test and see what I get, and if I got full speed work my way up from there installing updates and applications and see what is affecting it. Tbh I think it is something local to you which you haven't found yet because if it was a windows issue or update, no matter how small the glitch, it would have affected enough users globally that you would see it on the support forums and I couldn't find anything.

There are some in here-- https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...9-d0b7466916fc

Not worked for me yet...

STRANGE Things Happen...I downloaded the OOKLA Desktop Speed Test.. It was from Bristol (Virgin Media) Ping 13----Download 382.63---Upload 22.84..Thought you could only get 21.01 Up....Why does the OOKLA site give lower & desktop App gives higher...
OH- I did change the Ethernet Driver from Microsoft to NVIDIA...

Re: Win 10 Speed slow
 

Unless I missed it have you've updated or re-installed the network drivers.
Happened to me re-installed the network drive and the speed went up from 100meg back to 220.
It's actually happened twice to me.

Re: Win 10 Speed slow
 

Since upgrading my PC i now have an Intel chipset ethernet card where my old one was a broadcom chipset.

I have to set my ethernet card to full duplex and use TCPOptimiser in order to get full 350mb otherwise i wont see much more than 220mb.

Re: Win 10 Speed slow
 

Shouldn't need to do any of those things to make it work.
If you're having to force full duplex that suggests something is wrong with your cabling or if also using a switch something wrong with that.

Re: Win 10 Speed slow
 

Yeah, it's not negotiating the connection properly.

Re: Win 10 Speed slow
 

Well i changed from Cat 5 to Cat6 a few weeks ago when i moved hub and router and needed longer cables and this didnt solve it.

Im not having any issues touch wood.

Re: Win 10 Speed slow
 

What is Perplexing me brain is this..I google OOKLA speed test for online test. It always gives me a low speed on Win10..Do same on my Win 7 n it is Fast.
If I do an OOKLA Desktop speed test on win10 I get the Top fast speed. It is not the cables as I swapped them around n all is well with no change. Anyway, Once I buy a New Router I'll let you know if everything is lots better..THANKS ALL.

Re: Win 10 Speed slow
 

Try these speedtests via ethernet using atleast 2 different browsers without adblocks running and report back.
