WSA slowing upload speed in half

I was doing some testing of internet speeds and noticed that the download speed was correct but the upload speed was showing half of what it is supposed to be.
I did the same test going straight out the firewall and not through the WSA and upload speeds are as expected, no issues.
Would web caching causing that much effect on speeds? Does the WSA do something different on upload traffic then it does on download traffic?

The problem was that I was using QoS but my "Upstream Bandwidth" setting was on Auto. The WNDR3400 does not have that setting. I had to set it to manual and put in my upstream setting. Now it's where it should be.

I have been experiencing excessively slow upload speeds. like, what the malfunction. does someone have an explanation for such?

when uploading a movie either to theater or to share, i have been experiencing excessively slow upload speeds, as well as varying upload time.
-excessively slow speeds, such as a 1-minute video requiring more than 1-hour 44-minutes to upload.
-varying upload speeds, as in the status circle will report an upload time of 1-hour, and moments later report an upload time of 4-hours.
also, when selecting "iMovie" as an application, it requires an excessive amount of time simply to load and appear on the monitor.

Hi Julio,
We have removed the class-map for IPS and have done a clear local-host.
We have also changed the duplex (from Auto to full) and speed (from Auto to 100Mbps) on the outside interface.
it seemed the duplex we 've got was half when it was configured as Auto. We've asked our ISP to change in their side to full, but we've got half instead.
We did an upload test after those actions, the speed we got is 300KBps, it should be 8Mbps (download and upload).
when we send many upload at a same time, we can see from our monitoring tool that the bandwidth used is 8Mb.
We wonder we cannot get high speed when uploading a single file, the max speed is 300KBps.
Please, find below the output of

the 2710 collisions is on the outside interface (i think it was before changing duplex)
sh cpu
CPU utilization for 5 seconds = 2%; 1 minute: 1%; 5 minutes: 1%
when we plug a computer directly to the ISP device (IDU), the speed is high (about 650KBps).

Rapidshare Manager Application slow upload speed

Can a mod please look into this, the application rapidshare provide to upload files to their server is being throttled. Not for the first time.
Before anyone says it's rapidshares servers, it's not, you can trust me 100% on that.
Usually it's 8Mb (less than half my max speed of 18.5Mb) yesterday it dropped to 2Mb and today it's the same..
By contrast my upload speed to filesonic is a solid 18.5Mb..

I am also suffering from slow upload speeds to Rapidshare.
Yesterday the maximum upload speed was 2Mb/s, I have spoken directly to Rapidshare who have assured me that this definitely not at their end and that the upload speed to them is being throttled by Bt.
I remember a few years ago that I was unable even to connect to Rapidshare via BTinternet. After many denials by BT that they were blocking Rapidshare, they finally came clean and admitted the blocking.
Therefore I don't believe anything that BT tell me with regard to their operational practices especially from their overseas service centres who only know how to read from scripts!
If only it were possible to speak to someone in the UK, that was honest and actually knew what they were talking about.

Macbook pro: Extremely slow upload speed

Hi,
I know this question has beed raised many times before me, seemingly from hundreds or thousands of users, but none of the threads I have found has lead to any solution.
My new Macbook Pro (15 inch), using Lion 10.7.3, is simply unable to obtain anything but an extremely slow upload speed, when using Wifi. I am using an Apple Airpor Extreme wifi device. My work PC, my older Macbook Pro (13 inch), all tablets and telephones etc hooks up to the same Wifi device and obtain all the speed they should, but my new Macbook Pro is sloooooooooooowwwww and sometimes cannot even initiated an uload speedtest at i.a. www.speedtest.net.
As mentioned, I am aware that there are plenty of threads on this, but I am not aware of any that provides a solution.
Is there a solution or is my new Macbook nothing but crAplle?
Best regards,
n

My subscription is 10 Mbps downloadand 2 Mbps download. upload
I get that (10/2 Mbps) on all other devices, other than my new Macbook Pro.
On my new Macbook pro I get 10 Mbps download, but only from 0 to 25 Kbps upload.

IChat Theatre slows upload speed to 80kbps

Has anyone else noticed this? I know it's been like that for iChat screen sharing for some time but now I see it happening with iChat Theatre as well. For example, the video chat runs at 700kbps in both directions until someone starts iChat Theatre the bandwidth is immediately cut to 80kbps. My ISP does not traffic shape in any way therefore it seems to be iChat software. At these speeds, like screen sharing resolution is too low to be watchable.

I have a Dlink DGS-2208 gigabit switch connected to my Actiontec router. I just upgraded my FIOS speed to 35/35 from 25/15.
If I connect my computer directly into the Actiontec router, I get 35/35 speeds just fine.
But, if I connect the computer to the DGS-2208 and then connect the switch to the router, I get 35 down still, but only 15 up. This is very consistent. If I go through the swich it's always 35/15. If I go straight to the router, it's 35/35.
The DGS-2208 is a gigabit switch. Why is it cuting my upload speed in half to only 15.
I would also note, that when I had 25/15, the switch also worked at 15 up. That is, it worked at full speed. But it can't seem to go over 15 up.
Any suggestions are welcome.
I don't know why you'd be having the problem you're seeing, but just for informational purposes, I have a Linksys EG008W gigabit switch in the same configuation you describe and I get 43/32 mb/s down/up.
A couple of thoughts:
Do you have another computer on your LAN, connected to the switch and, if so, what kind of throughput to you get between the computers?
Have you tried a different Cat 5e/6 cable between the switch and the router?
And have you looked at your NIC's properties and tried forcing it in to 1000 mb/s full duplex?

Extreme slow upload speed in Dallas area

Hello
Something happened to my upload speed last Thursday, it has dropped considerably connecting to most servers making many sites very sluggish. I have the hardest time just attaching a file in Gmail and the gmail chat keeps saying 'unable to connect'. Using FTP for my work is almost impossible. It's takes me 5-10 tries to upload a file that's not even 50KB.
I've called Verizon tech support and went through different diagnostics and then they sent a new router, which still didn't help. Here's what I concluded so far:
It's not the router
It's not the computer since it happens on every machine
It's not the wiring since I can get good speed test connecting to some servers.
It's not the servers that i'm connecting to; everything works when i'm at work or on the phone.
I have 15/5, I've attached some speed test results.
Verizon's own speed test page even timed our during upload, which was stuck under 0.5 when it was about to finish.
Anyone else experiencing this? Verizon say my issue is currently with the engineers, but I have no idea how long that wait to be.
Thank you

Is there any Verizon representative that can escalate my issue?
Basically a tech came last Saturday and wasn't able to figure out what was wrong and left and closed my ticket. Whenever I call back now they're just telling me it's my computer, which is completely FALSE. All my 5-6 computer just doesn't happen to have slow upload speed of the sudden and require modification to RWin buffer as the suggested by the on-site tech. Verizon phone support bluntly told me they can't do anything further and would charge me for coming out again to replicate my issue.
Things the tech have already tried:
-Run Fios Optimizer multiple times on multiple computers.
-Replaced router
-Replaced ONT
-Rebooted PON card
Upload speed still sporadic, works perfect on some speedtests, but it's less than 0.5MB on many servers including Verizon's very own local speedtest. Gmail and any google site request is constantly slow. This site is slow and often times out. FTP to my own site is almost impossible if I want to upload a file that's bigger than 100kb.
I'm extremely frustrated.... There are reports of same exact issues in other thread, one seems to be fixed. Is there any way Verizon can look at that and apply it here?

Very slow upload speed via infinity 2 (business) unlimited after phone line fix (street cabinet) ?
Had my line fixed today by engineer (no dial tone).
Download rate near normal but upload = 0.73Mbps!?
I reset modem and router after he left and appreciate my profile is probably in need of some TLC after a weeks line fault, but is this normal in this situation? I heard it can take some time to reprofile my line and before it was fixed it was even worse at 0.10Mbps
Just seems very low considered the line is now operational again.

48Hrs+ on from residential line reconnection my business infinity 2 broadband upload speed is now approaching normal speed levels.
What a 10 days that was all because some ass disturbed the cabling in the street cabinet!
Yes I'm aware I have business broadband and am talking about it in a residential based forum, but my actual phone line is still residential that it is supplied over and the business broadband product is much the same animal as that supplied to residential customers i.e. Infinity 2 Unlimited. Only the mail and option of static i.p. appear different - that is all.
Jeez.

Then Restore your iPhone Firmware with iTunes on computer. See if better. If not, talk to Verizon and see if they know of the problem and if there is a fix. If not, then make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple for resolution under Warranty.

Possible solution to slow upload speed

After my old home built rig died I built another. Speedtest.net consistantly showed at least 75/75 with old rig and new one was 85mb down and only 35mb-40mb upload. Having seen this in the past I explored. Old rig used onboard Atheros network interface card (aka 'NIC'), new rig has onboard Realtek NIC.
Problem: Slow upload speeds but only after computer has been unused for a period of time. We all do this.
Note: Every single Windows install by default has "'Power Management" turn off the NIC when not in use. To disable NIC power down go to driver properties "Power Management" tab and uncheck all boxes.
After ruling out the obvious - Your PC, Router and Verizon tests, and have flushed your browser cache and DNS, here is the most likely problem causing intermittent slow upload speeds:
TEST 1: Upon complete computer reboot (not sleep or hibernate) up and download
             speeds are ok.
SYMPTOM: Computer first powers down (after whatever minutes power settings are set
                    at) and is then woken up.
1) Newer Realtek NIC drivers have three settings of interest under the 'Advanced' tab.
       1a) "Energy Efficient Ethernet" Default is 'Enabled'. Set to 'Disabled'.
     1b) "Green Ethernet" Default is 'Enabled'. Set to 'Disabled'.
       1c) "WOL & Shutdown Link Speed" Default is "10 mbps First" Set to "Not Speed
              Down".
2) Problem occurs when computer sits unused then NIC powers up again to the "10
    Mbps First".
3) Though the NIC will eventually uprate to higher speed, it will start at lower rate thus
    causing the problem.
4) My old Atheros NIC driver did not have the driver settings to save power and the
   Realtek one did.
5) Other NIC manufacturers may or may not have driver based power settings. At the
    very least go in the "Power Management" settings and uncheck boxes so NIC never
   powers down.
Common problem many do not think of in todays 'instant gratification' society. This happened way back in Win 3.11/95 days and continues to this day in all Windows OS's.
Hopefully others find this useful. And yes I shared this with Tech Support for their peer review process. Even if this works for some not all this is a common problem many tend to forget.
~Peace

Did it make any differnce to your speeds?
I have had this same issue on 2 systems for a year or so. Both have the same realtek nic built in on the mobo - Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller. Both systems have the same issue with speeds. have a 75/75 connection they both show a consistent download of around 83 and upload varies between 5 and 15. I've tried changing drivers and got the same results. Made the changes you noted and no difference. I figure it's a mobo problem. I added intel nics and that made a little diffrence - got the upload speed up to about 30. As I have other systems that work fine - consistently about 83/85 - I just finally ignored the issue and never bother doing uploads on the defective systems.
Would be nice to know the answer though.

My download and upload speed is half that of my laptop

My download and upload speed is half that of my laptop. I looked on a forum and it suggested that the new version of IOS might solve the problem, but I have updated to the latest and it hasn't. It is erratic, and I have to move my ipad round to get a signal in some parts of the house, whereas the laptop works very fast right next to it.

Problem solved. The culprit is the VZ issued Actiontec Modem-Router-Access Point.
I have doubt from the beginning that the problem is caused by my wifi adapter b/c it has always performed very well from the start. Upon more research on the web, I see that there are a lot of people having the exact problem as I do with their FiOS internet. I found some users who solved the problem with the same solution so I decide to try the same.
When I switched to FiOS, I took away my Asus N router b/c the VZ supplied Actiontec is a N router and AP also. Now, I turn off wireless in the Actionteach and hook up my Asus N router to it to use it as the AP. Boom! Now I get the full provisioned 50/25 speed and then some with both wired and wireless (and, my upstairs office is getting 40/20 wirelessly when before it used to be only about 15/10 using the Actiontec AP). Turning off the Asus and turning the Actiontech wireless back on and the wireless drops back down to 25/15. So it is pretty clear to me that somehow the Actiontec is not performing the way it should.
(In the Asus N router, in additional to the option of setting the wireless mode to b, g, n, there is also an option to select the wireless speed of up to 11, 54, 72 or 150. When I select “Up to 72 Mbps”, I get the same wireless speed as when I use the Actiontec AP which is only about 25/15. When I set the Asus speed to “Up to 150” I get the full provisioned speed of 50/25. So I look into the Actiontec but there is no such option beside the option to configure the b, g, n modes.)
I don’t think they give me a bump unit of the Actiontec b/c this problem is rather widespread. So, either there is a problem with this entire line of model of Actiontec or that there is a setting (or settings) in it that prevent it from performing the way it should but I look and look and can’t find any relevant setting.

Extremely slow upload speed on Airport Extreme

I've had a perfectly working Airport Extreme for about 3 years now and suddenly the other night it decided it would slow it's upload speed to a crawl. Speedtest.net gives me an upload speed of 15-20 Mbps download speed but a tiny .07 Mbps upload speed. I've been through the forums and ttried changing my Ethernet WAN Port settings to 1000 Mbsp and 100 Mbps instead of Automatic and I still have the same issue with 100 setting and it won't even connect at the 1000 setting. I've tried prior software versions (was running 7.6.1), restarting, and reverting to the factory settings and setting up a new network all to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

I've been through the forums and ttried changing my Ethernet WAN Port settings to 1000 Mbsp and 100 Mbps instead of Automatic and I still have the same issue with 100 setting and it won't even connect at the 1000 setting.
Unless your modem supports Gigabit Ethernet connections then setting the WAN port on the Extreme to 1000 will not work. Have you tried both of the 100 Mbps settings ... i.e., both Full and Half-Duplex?
The key here is what may have changed between the AirPort and the modem that could have caused your upload speed to drop. Depending on the generation of your AirPort, it can support LAN-to-WAN speeds up to 400 Mbps.
If changing the WAN setting doesn't help, I would suggest two things: 1) Reset the WAN setting to Automatic, and 2) Perform a complete power recycle of your networking equipment, as follows:
I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
Power-up your computer(s).
If the above steps do not solve the problem, start over with step 1 above, but then perform the next steps between steps 1 & 2. above.
Disconnect the AirPort base station from the Internet broadband modem.
While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref:Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
Reconnect the AirPort base station to the Internet broadband modem. For the Extreme and Time Capsule, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
Continue with step 2 in the first set of steps.
In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results.

Why does Telstra slow uploads speed down

I have had ongoing issues with my internet connection over the last 18 mouths.Having a upload speed of 450/650 Kbps very slow no good for gaming an down load of 8/11Mbps down load if more than I needTo the point I have spent good dollars try to insuring that the infrastructures and the Asset Integrity with in house are in best condition this includes the replacement and work listed belowReplacement of the Wi-Fi system to a Cat.6 cabling at a cost of $2,300Replacement of the modem with a high speed 1G port modem at cost of $ 475Replacement of the fly-lead for the Telstra house connection to the new wall socket a cost of $360Total cost of $3135 this spend was braced on Telstra recommendation as the problem was with my part of the connection after a large number of call to my internet provider I at last had a appointment with a Telstra Tec to carry line testing and fault finding .At this point if no fault was found I was the be billed at $60 per 15min or part off and travel cost as I live in Bullsbrook WA this may I high . Lucky for me a fault was found in the exchange and reconfigured and the speed and the Exchange improved to 22Mbps down and 15 Mbps up an outstanding numbers >test at the house 15Mbps and so 5 / 7 Mbps loss for the Exchange to house don’t to good but still very happy with it BUT the upload was 650 kbps /750Kbps and please remember this testing was carry out by Telstra with good equipment so at this point I ask why the upload was so slow? After spending over $2000 and lot of time on the phone only to be told that Telstra slow the upload speed down so the max you can get is 1 Mbps and the only way you can increase this is by paying for a business line but you still may not get any more than 1MbpsThis is only a very small part of the story SO I LIKE TO ASK WHY IS TELSTRA SLOWING ME DOWNIf you like to know more please let me know

Hi bigdave618,
The simple answer is, that's the way the system and hardware is designed, all ISP's are the same. Uploads are limited to around 1Mbps. If you wish to get higher upload speeds you can see if Cable Broadband or NBN are available in your area as these systems allow for higher upload speeds.
Upload speeds are generally slower than download speeds because of the fact that most internet connected equipment is asymmetric. Asymmetric means that any one packet of data can either go in, or out, but not both ways at the same time. Since most internet users are receiving more data than sending, the internet connected equipment has shifted the higher majority of the signals to go toward downloading.
If you wish to find out more about ADSL I have added a link to a Wikipedia article below along with the link to the NBN and Telstra websites so you can check to see if Cable Broadband or NBN is available in your area.

Slow Upload Speed - Please please help!

Hi everybody.
I've been speaking to BT for over a week now because of broadband issues. First, I used to get roughly 14Mbps download speed and about 0.9Mbps upload speed. Then last wednesday (15th May), it all went downhill. My download speed slowed down to 0.2Mbps and my upload about 0.3Mbps.
Okay, now, forward one week, with an engineer visit on Monday, a line reset at some point (Mon, Tues or even 17th of May - everyone keeps telling me something different) and 6 hours of phone calls with India yesterday, my download speed is now brilliant, but my upload speed is still down to 0.3Mbps. They told me that it will increase incrementally because my line was reset and that it would be fine by midnight last night, but it wasn't at all. :-( It was still down to 0.38Mbps.
They're going to send a boost engineer out on Tuesday, but it's such a long time away and I've had to go without broadband for over a week now.
Does anyone know what the problem is? How it can be fixed? Please can somebody help me? I'm really at my wits' end.

welcome to the BT community forum where customers help customers and only BT employees are the forum mods
none of your links work
in order for the forum members to help please can you post the adsl stats from your router may need to 'show detail' to get all stats (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser and navigate to adsl or use a-z, if netgear enter 192.168.0.1) and run btspeedtester (MAC users may have problems). when first test completes then run diagnostic test and post the results .
are you connected directly via a filter to the NTE5 master or test socket or to somewhere else? Is the master the only phone socket in your home?
Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal

Really Slow Upload Speed

Hi there,
My upload speed has significantly dropped by alot, i heard that it is supposed to be about 10% of your download speed? For example mine was 3.22Mb/s download but my upload speed is at 0.03Mb/s, I have changed my channel but nothing has happened. The main sort of lagg that i get is on the xbox, and when my mum turns her computer on it gets even worse. Is there anything I can do to boost the upload speed? If you could help that would be great.
http://www.speedtest.net/result/762176977.png
Thanks Carl.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

if your mums pc was wireless then the problem wouldn happen, or if you were bothe wired it wouldnt happen however when the wifi and wired connections work they share the available connectivity in half between them then spread it further between each device.
best option would be either an expensive change of equipment or a very cheap nice long ethernet cable for the xbox to stop it happening
