Wired Network speed slow on some machines
I have a simple home network running several machines with Windows 7.
My "server" is running W7 Pro x32. This machine is connected via wired internet directly to my wireless router. When I run a java speed-test web app, I am seeing speeds between 1 and 4 Mb/sec. (My connection is ~20Mb).
I have a W7 Pro x32 laptop connected via wireless. This laptop gets 17Mb/sec speeds.
When I connect the laptop via a wire to the router, it's still upwards of 15Mb/sec.
This was not always the case with this hardware.
I have tried shutting down any non-essential services.
I have tried running the speed test in Safe Mode +Networking.
I ran a live linux CD and got fast speeds.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this?
