  1. My internet slows down after 'sleeping'


    Hi,


    I just got a brand new PC 1.5 month ago, but I have noticed whenever I leave my PC and it goes into sleeping mode - and wake it up again, my internet is slow despite Speedtest.net shows I have full 300 Mbps speed. I have tested it on a few sites, where fx the graphics renders slow or download of large files downloads in kb/s rather than mb/s.


    I tried to search the internet for a solution, but most of the sites claims it can be on the other end the issue is (i.e. the remote site is causing the bottle neck), but that is not the case, as a restart of my computer brings it back to normal speed.


    It was also suggested to disable/re-enable my ethernet controller (Killer E2400), which I have tried to do without any luck as the result is still slow. I even tried to disable my ethernet and only use my wifi, but it is still slow, so my limited test skills tells me it is something both my ethernet and wifi shares that is causing the issue.


    I also tried to reset (in windows) my Ethernet controller and have it reinstalled but to no avail. The only solution for now seems to restart my PC every time I get into this scenario, which is quite inconvenient.


    Do you have any idea, what else I should look at?


    My drivers and Windows updates are up to date.


    The fact that it corrects itself after a restart makes me suspect it is software related and not hardware related.


    Hope you can help as it is driving me desperate.


    Thank you in advance,


    Best regards

    Thomas
