Windows 10: Slow internet speed on Windows 10 1909, Microsoft throttling continuation of thread from 1809

tutu_312 · Feb 8, 2020

This is a continuation of the thread: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/slow-internet-speed-on-windows-10-1809/022c16ef-3c69-4472-b7e9-d0b7466916fc?page=6

It seems Microsoft programmers noticed the comment I made about nvspbind and found a way to throttle my internet even after that in subsequent windows updates. After upgrading to a new motherboard my internet connection was for a short time reaching 120 mbps instead of the usual 50-60 in browser tests. However, within an hour or two, windows found a way to disable that, and now I am stuck at 50-70 mbps, and it maxes out at that speed very slowly. In linux it maxes out instantly, so there is hidden throttling and QoS taking place even with all QoS disabled. I get 174 megabits in linux almost instantly.

One user claimed their only solution was resetting TCPIP to defaults, but that fix only lasts for two hours before throttling kicks in. Apparently the only solution is to downgrade to Windows 10 Pro 1809 17763.615.

So this is clearly inbuilt throttling that so far I have not found a way to permanently disable.

I have updated and changed Adapter drivers to the manufactures original release, and currently use the latest February 2020 release. I have run TCP optimizer optimized settings, gpedit QoS modifications QoS is disabled in the adapter anyway Its not a dell machine so no throttling app built in. I disabled Windows update throttling settings and all the rest. I have disabled TCP heuristics, changed congestion provider from cubed to ctcp, enabled/disabled side scaling & window auto tuning, enabled and disabled every advanced optionas under lan card properties, unbinded everything but the essentials with nvspbind. Enabled and disabled windows based chimney and offloading. Used alternative network adapters. Reinstalled O/S multiple times.

Disabling taskoffloading gave me the best, from 1.3 to 5.5 megabytes per second downloading Nvidia drivers yet still minimal improvements, in powershell:
Set-NetOffloadGlobalSetting -TaskOffload disabled
Disabling hystart slowstart gave me better initial throughput:
netsh int tcp set global hystart=disabled

Windows 10, after days of tweaking

Kapersky Live CD, default

Windows Nvidia driver download

Linux Nvidia driver download

The exact same file on the same server downloads at 22 megs a second in linux. In Windows 10, disabling task offloading in powershell I am able now to download at 5-7 megabytes per second instead of 1.3. Then it slowly throttles down to 4.5 megabytes per second, but it should be ~22 megabytes per second flat out, all the time. Multithreaded downloads using eagleget, which maxes out the connection at 32 threads, are limited to 9.6 megabytes per second in windows on the same Nvidia servers. Torrents do not have this limitation in windows, they max out at 14 megabytes per second. So this appears to be inbuilt QoS app specific throttling.

This problem has been ongoing for TWO YEARS. I was able to mitigate it for a while but microsoft updates broke that as well. I have come to the conclusion Microsoft is intentionally limiting billions of users bandwidth with some kind of global throttling agenda from some kind of top down directive... the same way they forced windows 10 spyware O/S onto us without our consent, the same way Bill forced himself onto the children of Epstein's island. They have really seriously incompetent and indifferent staff that haven't taken notice of the tens of thousands of complaints over the last two years, and who evidently don't care about their own internet speed either.

Slow Internet Speed on Windows 10 1809

Hi,

My name is Angel. I am an Independent Advisor. Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

1. Close the Peer to Peer Update Process on Your PC to Fix Slow Internet after Windows 10 Update

Shut down the peer to peer update process on your PC. That is to say, you need to close the channel which you can download applications and system updates from other PC’s connected to the server since it limits your internet bandwidth seeding to other users.

Step 1. Click Start menu and then type Settings to open it.

Step 2. Select “Update and Security“.

Step 3. Click the “Advanced Options” tab.

Step 4. Click the option “Choose How Updates are Delivered".

Step 5. Turn off the On button.

2. Adjust the Internet Bandwidth Settings

Since windows 10, by default, reserves 20% of the internet bandwidth for the system applications and its operating system, you can’t browse or surf on the internet with 100% internet connection. This solution speeds up the dropping internet speed by trimming
down the bandwidth which is reserved for Windows 10 and system applications. Follow the step-by-step guide to tackle slow internet after Windows 10 Update.

Step 1. Press Windows shortcut keys Win + R to open Run dialog box.

Step 2. Type gpedit.msc and then hit OK.

Step 3. Give permissions. A pop-up window will open with title of Group Policy.

Step 4. Click on Computer Configuration on the right side of the window.

Step 5. Navigate to: Administrative Templates -> Network – > Qos Packet Scheduler – > Limit reservable bandwidth.

Step 6. Click on Enable.

Step 7. Change the Value from 20 to 0.

Step 8. Apply and then click OK.

3. Disable Window Auto-Tuning

Window Auto-Tuning which is enabled by default improves performance for programs by receiving TCP data over a network. Slower internet speed after Windows 10 Update could hit your computer when Window Auto-Tuning feature is “ON”. While luckily, you can disable
Windows Auto-Tuning level to improve the internet speed for the Windows 10 update. Use administrator privileges to process the following steps.

Step 1. Press Win + X and then select Command Prompt (Admin).

Step 2. Type the command netsh interface tcp show global in the window.

Step 3. Check for Receive Window Auto-Tuning Level and if it is normal, you will need to disable it.

Step 4. Type the command netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled to disable it.

You can perform an internet speed test to see whether those adjustments improve your internet speed or not. If not, you can re-enable the Window Auto-Tuning level by typing the command netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=normal in the Command Prompt (Admin).

I tried this last night and now my laptop is worse. Your first suggestion "choose how updates are delivered" isn't even an option. Hopefully the 1908 update will fix this problem that microsoft caused. Sadly my internet connection keeps disappearing so downloading
and installing that update isn't really working. Microsoft and their mistake is pointing me towards having to pay someone to come in and fix it. Not happy with Mr Gates right now.

Any other solution?

I have followed all the mention fixes in most of the previous posts; only slight improvement after following this one and it was temporary.

The only practical solution i found is to reset the network settings but it works only for few hours and then the internet get slower overtime.

Microsoft everything was alright until I have updated your June updates.

How many different solutions are there?

Am I supposed to try out every one?

Where are there different solutions for the same problem?

The above is one solution I have seen. The other is from Rafael Souza da Silva. However, his solution explains that I am supposed to see "speed and duplex" under the Advanced tab to select 100Mbps Full / Half Duplex. There is no speed and duplex under the
Advanced tab.

Why is there more than one answer on how to fix this issue?
