  2. Win 10 (and 8) resposnible slow DL speeds as per Cox Cable

    Cox just told me my DL speed issues are totally due to Win 10 (and 8) compatibility issues as my husband's Win 7 PC hardwired can get over the recommended speed while I am

    getting a fraction wireless or hardwired. Suggestions?

    My Dell laptop returns DL speed < 10 Mbps) and UL speed > 100 Mbps when connected to WiFi router on 802.11ac , but same devices return UL/DL Speeds >50Mbps when connected on 802.11 b/g/n mode

    Hi Vijay,

    Thanks for the time taken by you and sending a detailed list of DOs to try.

    I tried all, but with no change.

    While I connect to the same router on 802.11 b,g,n I can get a speed of UL/DL around 50-60MBPS, but once I connect on 802.11ac (sitting just next to the router), I measure UL speed of 110MBPS, but DL is less than 10MBPS.

    Please suggest.

    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)
