    Low download speed , high upload speed


    Hello guys , I recently started having this issue where my download speed will drop around 1 to 3 mbps , whilst my upload speed would keep its average flow of around 90 mbps , like a week ago everything was fine , but suddenly my download speed , from around 80 90 mbps won't go higher than 3 mbps , I checked the cable , drivers , everything , I don't know what to do . I attached a photo of the results of a speed test , maybe you guys can help me ?

    :)

    Windows 10 Pro x64 - very low internet upload speed over Ethernet

    Hi Tomas,

    There are possible reasons why you have a low upload speed while download speed is high. For us to isolate the issue, please provide the following information:

    • When does the issue start?
    • Is your Windows 10 recently perform a Windows update?
    • Did you download any third part driver that runs with your Network properties?

    low write speed

    when I download an app of any platform i.e Microsoft store or steam, I am getting high download speeds but my write speed is only at 2mb/s meaning that it is just slowing down my updates and downloads. I have searched for answers and I cant find anyone with
    the same problem, most of them have low disks speeds and their usage is at 100% but I have low disk speeds and I have only seen my usage go up to 3%.

    this picture is during a 36GB download off the Microsoft store and as you can see, the write speed is low.

    Slow Download Speed

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft forums.

    • I would suggest you to test the speed using any of the speed test website or app to confirm the upload and download speed.
    • I also suggest you to reset the wireless router to check if that helps.
    • You may plug in the Ethernet cable if available and check the speed.


    Hope the information is helpful. Feel free to write to us for any other assistance with Windows, we’ll be glad to assist you
