Thanks, I'll check into that. Right now I'm getting slow bandwidth, andDave-UK said:You can turn off the automatic bypass of Metro, if you want to , there's a setting somewhere

Any chance the NIC on the computer, went to "10BT" mode ?G. Morgan said:Thanks, I'll check into that. Right now I'm getting slow bandwidth, and
in the process of troubleshooting. I don't think it's Win 8 - but I'm
going though and dismantling the network to isolate it before I call the
cable company and raise hell. I have to try speedtests on some other
machines (Win 7) to double check it's not an O/S issue. I can hear the
cable company now, "we don't support Win 8".
I was plugged into the modem direct and got decent results, but not what
I'm paying for. Now it's Win 8 and the router with nothing else plugged
in and speeds are decreased somewhat. I'm going to do the same with the
7 machine later and make sure 8 is not the culprit. If I call now, it's
1am and I won't exactly get the "A" team from support. <g>
First use iperf or jperf to test your LAN, don't use the Internet forThanks, I'll check into that. Right now I'm getting slow bandwidth, and

The NIC was set to 'auto', I changed it to 100/ full duplex.Paul said:Any chance the NIC on the computer, went to "10BT" mode ?
That'll slow it down. I've only had that happen once here.

but not all Ethernet interfaces have LEDs. My cheapest
motherboard doesn't have any.
Makes me think it's some phone-home software, mate. Something autonomous.The NIC was set to 'auto', I changed it to 100/ full duplex.
I also have a new adaptor I noticed Win 8 installed; "Microsoft Kernel
Debug Network Adapter"
WTF is that?
Definitely looks like it's coming up somewhat short.I'm paying for 30Mbps down and 2 up, here is what I get now:

I'm going to check the Win 7 machine now.
Aardvark said:Ah! Much healthier. Have you found an executable running with that MKNA
thingy, mate? Its name really makes me think of something constantly
running and uploading data on your system. Definitely don't like the
sound of it.
Yep.Me either. Needs research said:Just out of curiosity- when you disable MKNA, does your networking icon
still indicate you're connected?
