Slow internet upgrade

P90x · July 31, 2015

Ok, I recently upgraded my Fios internet speed from 50/50 to 100/100mbs. Was doing just fine until I did the Windows 10 upgrade. Ever since then my speed has gone back down to 50/50. I read the Windows upgrade is causing major traffic on the internet. Could this be causing the issue?

Yes.

Yeah Windows 10 does degrade your network speeds A LOT. Same thing happened with me. My internal wireless adapter hit a huge loss in performance and I ended up with a lot lower speeds. I think that this is just a bug with the drivers since Windows 10 isn't known to work well with Windows 7/8.1 drivers, and will hopefully be fixed soon.
