I have to force it to restart and to regain my internet speed back to 60 Mbps. So my routine every day is as follows: Start my PC fresh, then restart my PC again every one hour or so due to extremely slow internet speed. This happens at work, at home. I have confirmed that it is not due to Cox Internet. I believe it is this mysterious program that is running in the background that does not show up on the Task Manager. It takes up almost all my internet bandwidth and choke my internet speed to almost zero.
It is happening everyday, all day long. I have tried anti-virus by Kaspersky, Windows Defender, and Webroot. All have same results. Do anyone know how to find out what is this unidentified program running in the background that slows the internet speed to 0. It is running in the background and preventing the PC from shutting down? Does something inside Windows 10 have anything to do with this? I have turned off "Allow downloads from Other PCs" in the setting.
Nothing seemed to consume much to slow down my internet net speed to such extreme low speed. We need to do further investigation so that we can identify the cause of the issue. We suggest doing some of the options listed on the article Fix network connection issues in Windows 10 and see if it helps. Was this reply helpful? Yes No. Sorry this didn't help. Thanks for your feedback. Thank you very much for your fast reply.
Since I do not have initial internet connection problems, I followed your list of items and went straight to review my WIFI driver. So I googled for the AC driver, found the Intel website. I went through the download, install and reboot. My PC internet download speed has been stable for the past 6 hours. The download speed is between Mbps, faster than my Cox plan of 60 Mbps. Then I ran the restart test. Amazing again! There was NO mysterious program running in the background that preventing the PC from shutting down!!
I am keeping my finger crossed, but looking like it is the outdated driver was the real problem. If I do not come back asking for more help, then you can assume that this problem has indeed been solved. I hope this case can help other people who have similar problems. It pays to come to the expert community and find people like you to help solved the problems.
