    Windows 10 PC not matching download speeds of other devices on WiFi

    Yes, wilfred24, I have - both of those countless times. I have had a Comcast engineer home visit, not to mention several phones calls with them and two remote diagnostic sessions with the original manufacturer. I think we can safely say the issue is not with the service itself since all the...

    Windows 10 PC not matching download speeds of other devices on WiFi

    Further to this issue I can report that after purchasing and installing new Wi-Fi card and uninstalling the original one I have gained a significant improvement - but it is by no means up there with the other devices including the older PC as I'm still seeing about 1/3 performance. I did NOT...

    Hey Neemobeer, Thanks for sticking with this and being persistent - I appreciate it. As far as I am aware there is no QoS. It’s the latest Comcast Xfinity gateway (tall white one) and it should be operating at default settings (whatever they are) because I personally have made no alterations...

    Hi Neemobeer, Thanks for the suggestion. Metered connection data usage limit was set to "0" per the first step and metered connections were already set to "off' per the second step. Incidentally a Comcast engineer visited today and tested the service and it is confirmed that I'm getting good...

    Windows 10 PC not matching download speeds of other devices on WiFi

    Hey Neemobeer, Thanks so much for the reply. The PC is a late 2018 build. Its actually nearly 2 years newer than the other PC with which it cohabits the desk and which can get sometimes 5 times the download speed. This morning a ran some further speed tests using the Ookla app. Here are the...

    Windows 10 PC not matching download speeds of other devices on WiFi

    Hello folks, The machine in question - a Windows 10 Home PC desktop, (Version 20H2 (OS Build 19042.870)), virus scanned running on a Core i7 8086K with 32GB RAM and a GTX 1080ti - cannot seem to get remotely close to the download speeds of any of the others PC and devices on my home WiFi...
