I have 2 machines at my desk, I have recently installed Windows 10 on both of them.
One of them is using a motherboard with an Intel I217-V network adapter, and the other is using an Intel I219-V.
On the machine with the 217, my internet speeds seems to be capped around 180 mbps ( confirmed via speedtest.net and via downloads from fast servers). The LAN speeds benchmark and work fine, so it seems to only happen when the traffic is from the internet. This machine also has a Realtek adapter and it shows the same symptom.
On the other machine that has the 219 I can test it almost any time of the day and I will see 400 ~ 525 mbps download speeds.
I have not been able to pin down the issue with the 217, and I have a family member that has gigabit internet service at their house and is seeing a similar symptom on a Windows 10 machine with a Killer E2500 network adapter.
In all the cases I have tested the cables plugged into a known working machine and they test fine ( at my relatives house I used my laptop on the network cable that was hooked to the offending machine and was able to get 790mbps download speeds, but the machine would see 170mbps maximum). I have even taken and booted the offending machines with a live USB drive running Linux and got proper speeds, so the issue does appear to be within Windows 10.
Has anyone else seen this ? I have already disabled all the power saving settings, and tried some other tweaks and only gained maybe 5 - 10 mbps of speed.
Really could use some help if anyone has any ideas of what is going on. I do not think I was seeing these problems when I was on Windows 7.
