Windows 10: Win10 Update Killed My WiFi Speed

On 11/14/19, I noticed that my wifi speed on my PC had dropped from pretty decent to dead slow. I'm talking ~1-2Mbps slow. That's dial-up speed. Over the next two days, I tested it many times, rebooted multiple times, adjusted the WiFi card's antennas multiple times, rebooted the modem/router twice... none of that made any difference. My semi-ancient laptop, running Win7, is able to consistently hit the ~25-30Mbps range using the same test (Speedtest.com) while sitting on the desk next to my PC, so not a signal issue.


Finally I checked the update history on the PC and saw that two patches had been installed on 11/13/19, the day before I noticed the problem. I uninstalled the first one, rebooted, and got 12Mbps on the first test I ran. Now I'm getting between 6 and 12Mbps on subsequent tests. Not good, but much better than it was. I'm debating removing the other patch that was installed on 11/13, to see if that improves things even more.


Anyone else experienced this? And, Microsoft... ****?

Win10: windows update stuck at never ending loop ?

When in win10:

• Update&security -> Windows update -> Finding update... .... .... ....

Planning to download the latest Win10.ISO (vers.1803) and manually update:
- Then wait that my ordered new SSD arrives and clone the old HDD to it.

 

Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

Here's a quick laundry list:

List of software to use for overclocking and testing
Examples:
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)

I want to kill wifi

I have a laptop running on an older version of win 10 which allows me to run an old commercial software program.

So I don't want win10 sneaking an update in on me. I do not need wifi for any reason on this lap, I do not use Ethernet, I want to completely prevent this laptop from being able to access the internet in any way.

To keep this simple I want to kill this laptops ability to access internet!

PS: Win10 is disallowing me to delete the wifi account I had to set up to do a factory wipe and it refuses to keep it off, the connect automatically function turns itself back on. Anyway; rather then fight win10 on deleting a wifi account how do i simply kill win10 and it's insatiable desire to connect to the Internet!! Currently I have airplane mode on, unless win10 is sneaking around in the back ground!
