Windows 10: Windows 10 limiting internet connection speed to 450Mbps for a 1Gbps internet

Hi ..


I have Google Fiber and the connection speed is 1 GBPS. In the same computer, using Ubuntu Linux, I get 930Mbps for download. However, windows 10 tops out at 450Mbps.


I have a Asrock X99 Extreme4 motherboard and Xeon cpu.


I need help to resolve the connection speed.


Thanks,

:)

 

1Gbps Internet Connection - Windows 10 Pro

I am on windows 10 pro which shows 1Gbps network connection. Recently I subscribe to internet provider of speed 1Gbps.

When I do speedtest, I am only able to achieve 550download & 570upload. The service provider send their technician to check and using windows 8 or Mac OS, they are able to achieve 750 download & 800 upload. This prove nothing wrong with the bandwith.

I am testing using direct cable connection.

Question is any internet speed control by windows 10 pro or any other place that I should be looking at. IT is a pain when you paid for 1000mbps but getting only less than 60%

 

Korea to Get 1Gbps Internet Access by 2012

Imagine internet connectivity at 1Gbps, speeds at which a 120 minute SD film gets downloaded in 12 seconds! The Korea Communications Commission is reportedly spending $22 Billion in upgrading its telecommunications infrastructure that facilitates public internet connections with such extremely high bandwidth as 1Gbps for fixed-lines and up to 10 Mbps for wireless connections. Korea plans to to operationalise this by the year 2012, starting with urban centres, mainly large cities with relatively affluent populations. Other places in the country will still get internet access at speeds of up to 100 Mbps.

Internet connection speeds

I'm really curious about this, considering the amount of hoopla every major internet connection provider likes to claim about their services, and many times exaggerated just to help their own sales . . .

So, with that in mind, anyone willing to post up their download/upload connection speeds, and we can see just how much of a difference there is in the various internet connection types.

Hit up Speedtest by Ookla - The Global Broadband Speed Test, choose the location closest to your home and begin the test, afterwards, copy and paste your result here. Also, please list what type of connection you have (dial-up, cable, DSL, VDSL, FiOS, etc) - if you are running through an ethernet connection, please also list whether it's a direct connection, or your LAN/WiFi connection speeds.

So, I guess I'lll start:

Verizon standard DSL - D-Link 802.11g 54Mbps
