Speedtest - broadband speed

(1/2) > >>

Einar Lygre:
I just upgraded  my fiber into my house. The speed was 50/50 Mbps, but after the upgrade it should be 300/300 Mbps. When I run a speed test program it shows about 95/95 under eCS, but 300/300 under Win10. Same PC.
What or where is the weak point under eCS?

Dave Yeo:
What is your hardware? In particular your network card?

Neil Waldhauer:
Try transferring some files. The weak point could be the speed test program.

Einar Lygre:
The network card:  Realtek PCIe GBE Familie Controller  1 Gbps.

For the download speed test I use FAST.COM both in eCS and WIN. There are many speedtest solutions that can be run in the browser. All of them give me the same result. I don't have any standalone program for this.

Dave Yeo:
There's been reports of bad performance with Reaktek cards/drivers. Seems Realtek uses the host CPU for more functionality then other network cards/drivers.
