Windows 7 network/internet slow resolved


A friend of mine kept saying networking is slow in windows 7 and over the years I have heard it from many people,so some fixes I found,

run->cmd(with admin privilege)->netsh interface tcp show global


in the output if the Receive Windows Auto-Tuning Level : normal


then


netsh interface tcp set global autotuning=disabled


now see the output of netsh interface tcp show global


Receive Windows Auto-Tuning Level : disabled should be showing up


Remote differential compression should be off as old operating systems does not support this feature,it basically compresses data over the network


to do this you have to go to


control panel-programs-turn windows feature on or off and then clear the box beside remote differential compression


disable ipv6 from your lan adapter at it's properties


set duplex settings to 10mb/s half duplex


see for suspicious process in task manager


ipconfig /flushdns,net stop dnscache,net start dnscache commands should be useful,at the end netsh winsock reset should get the job done although a restart is required.


try using ccleaner for clean up of temporary files and registry clean


try using malwarebytes for a quick scan


go to msconfig and delete unnecessary programs at start up


make windows theme the classic one so that some ram frees up


for advanced scanning use hijackthis software


I guess that's it then.
