Honestly whoever came up with this idea needs to go rethink life choices. These automatic updates are infuriating for people who can't get decent internet in their area. I've tried all I can to turn these bastards off, but it just refuses to stop. I'm on the verge of pulling my hair out if I see...

I have a weird issue with my Win 10 laptop. When I connect it to router through a Ethernet cable, video streaming is extremely slow. Whether it is facebook or youtube or any other streaming sites, situation remains same. But when I am on WifI, it's good and faces no issue. What can be the...

Hi! I just did a clean install of Windows 10 Anniversary Update. After the OS had finished installing a few updates it began downloading and installing some useless games (Candy something something and others). I have a slow internet connection so I had to wait for ~30 mins for all the games...

So I recently upgraded to win 10 from win 7 and my internet speed is really slow. I went from 8mbs to 0.7mbs. Cant watch streams and it takes a while to open any sites. Meanwhile on my laptop which is using win 8 the internet is fine on that, even when im connected to the internet on my win 10...

This has been raised by others previously, but not been mentioned for a while. All solutions to the W10 Home update auto downloads problem suggest that enabling the Wi-Fi 'metered connection' button will stop this. This is fine if your connection is wi-fi. Most of the IT world considers...

This all started several months ago. My laptop was stuck in processing updates for hours, even when I had got off work. I turned it off by holding down the power button, the I turned it back on. After booting up, it continued to process updates. I turned off again the same way I did the first...

Hi guys, really need your help. Win7 64-bit So a week ago I needed to have access to a printer/scanner (Brother) in my home. I installed the software/drivers and unplugged the ethernet cable from one of the modem ports into a Linksys router. Everything was just fine except anything over the...

Hello, Over the past week or so, my internets upload speed has been horrendous, with the highest i have tested it as being 19 KBps (from testmy.net and from a few other sources as well), meanwhile, my download speed is absolutely fine. To make sure this was a problem with windows, I booted into...

So I recently had to reset the router and now all computers/phones/tablets in the house will connect to the wireless and have internet, but my computer will connect but have no internet. It has full signal strength, but when I scroll over networking it always says I have no internet. I have...

Hey everyone, just downloaded and installed 8 Pro. I love it, but my internet is extremely slow now. My wife and I were streaming netflix last night and it kept buffering. It never did this on W7. I just did a speed test on my phone and got 4.9 Mbps. I did the test on my laptop and I got .89...

I recently reinstalled my OS, Windows 7 Home Premium. Everything went smoothly, reinstalled all my drivers, gamebooster etc etc. But when I went to download all my games, I found that my internet speed had gone down the tube, an irritatingly slow 1mb/s -.- That's only 1/20 of my normal speed...

Firstly, I apologise if this is a bit confusing, but I'm a bit confused. (Old fart with too many computers) My main computer is a relatively decent Win 7 Home Premium setup. It is/was part of a wired network which contains 3 other computers, 2 XP, and one old MiniMac. I also have/had connected...

My issue: Youtube keeps freezing, pausing and stopping. Downloads keep getting interrupted, and going super slow. This happens on all browsers. Game's disconnect midway. Downloads go from 1Mb/s to 10Kb/s in a matter of seconds. It come's and goes. One minute my internet speed is 10Mb/s next...

Hello, after checking older threads about this problem, I still could not find a way to fix it. About a month ago my computer started giving me this message, and was disconnecting every few hours, usually when I download or stream. Lately the problem is much worse, the internet disconnects...

Hello! Just a few moments ago, I was hit with a problem and I'm at a lost on how to fix it. Everything was working fine, I could sign into AIM and Yahoo, etc, but suddenly I was disconnected and now I'm having trouble connecting to my messengers, except for Skype, for some reason. Checking...

Okay, so I'm new to this forum. Anyway, I'm having several problems with my internet. This all started happening when I got Windows 7 installed. Whenever I try to download anything with any browser, it stops randomly and fails, or finishes only part of it. For example on Firefox, it says the...

It seems that my wireless connection is extremely slow and nothing I've tried will correct the problem. I have an Acer Aspire One AOD250 with Windows 7 Starter. This is a new machine and came with the Atheros AR5B95 Wireless Network Adapter. I made sure that all of the power management...
