Slow GEN 5 using my LAN
I have HughesNet Gen 5 and my download speeds on my desktop computer are around 7mbps. They should be around 25mbps. I am directly connected via LAN to the modem/router. I go to "Testmy.net" to do my speed tests and they are consistently slow...around 7mbps. I used the manual 25MB test. Here's where it gets weird. When I connect my laptop to one of the other LAN ports on the back of the router/modem, I get download speeds of 25mbps, while a moment later, the desktop computer gets download speeds, once again, around 7mbps. Here is what I’ve tried to do to attempt to resolve the problem. Power down the modem/router for 1 minute and restart. Didn’t fix the problem. Delete my cache/cookies/history from my desktop computer (running Windows 10). Didn’t fix the problem. Restart my desktop computer. Didn’t fix the problem. Go into the "Device Manager" and uninstall all my network drivers...then power down my desktop computer, and then power back on and let the drivers re-load. Didn’t fix the problem. Update all my network drivers, directly from the "Device Manager". Didn’t fix the problem. Plug my desktop LAN cable into a different port on the back of the modem/router. Didn’t fix the problem. There must be some sort of Windows 10 setting to fix this since it is isolated to only 1 computer that is connected to the LAN, but I'm lost. My other computers get the 25mbps using the LAN, but my desktop computer does not. HELP!Solved3.8KViews0likes7Comments
