Windows 10: PC - not accepting multicast

Hi.
I've noticed my PC has stopped receiving multicast traffic.
If I boot into safe mode with networking then my application does get multicast..

I've disabled ZoneAlarm and Avast and neither of these have made a difference..

Any ideas what to try next ?

Thanks

:)

 

Windows Hotspot very slow

I got the same problem with both Windows 8 and 10. The multicast upload is pretty fast like 10 times faster than the multicast download.

MDT Multicast

Hello Everyone,

I am new to MDT multicast and was hoping someone can answer my question, I set my MDT server up for multicast and it goes all the way to 99% and I watch it in the WDS console under my deployment share, I can see three clients and when they reach 99% and
I hit refresh the clients disappear which i think means it reached 100% but then on the client side its rolls back to installing operating system and starts the percent count again. Is multicast on MDT work different, does it first download the image to one
computer and once downloaded it distributes that one image to all others . I found an article below that explains how it should work but I am not sure if I am understanding it correctly.

Here is the overall process:

• ClientA starts a multicast session to download Win7SP1x86.wim from the MDT/WDS Server.
• When the broadcast session of Win7SP1x86.wim reaches 25%, ClientB joins the session in progress. ClientB knows that it missed the first ¼ of the Win7SP1x86.wim file, so it starts writing 25% into its local copy of Win7SP1x86.wim.
• When the multicast session reaches 100% of Win7SP1x86.wim, ClientA is done and drops off. However, ClientB is still missing the first ¼ of the file, and stays on the multicast chanel as it restarts (rolls back) to zero.
• Eventually the multicast session of Win7SP1x86.wim reaches the 25% mark where ClientB first joined. ClientB now has 100% of the file and drops off. No clients are connected, and the server stops broadcasting.

 

You could try the Clean boot approach to troubleshoot the problem.

Thanks for the reply.
I removed ZA and Avast and still had the issue, so I put them both back, rebooted and now it's working !

No idea why but its fine again..
