Slow speeds in Windows 7

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I recently moved from Windows Xp to Windows 7 and I'm getting slow speeds when using AirVPN, and random disconnects. I'm not sure if I have any kind of misconfiguration.

 

My ISP connection has 12MB download/3MB upload. When using Eddie client in Windows XP I got almost the same speed as my ISP.

Now in Windows 7, when connected to AirVPN, the upload speed is similar, but the download goes only between 4MB and 6MB. If i switch AirVPN off the speeds go back to normal. I'm also seeing a lot of random disconnects, like an unstable connection.

 

The AirVPN speed doesn't show better results

Down: 2.685 Mbit/s Out, 2.243 Mbit/s In (83%), 10MB - Up: 1.822 Mbit/s Out, 1.129 Mbit/s In (61%), 10MB - Date: Wed, 07 Dec 2016 12:50:19 GMT - Buffers: 10MB/10MB - Laps: 3, Time: 568.27 secs
 

This are the results I get for example with SpeedTest webpage (http://beta.speedtest.net/?noflash=1)

Without VPN

Download 11.82

Upload 3.28

Ping 10ms

 

With AirVPN

Download 4.75

Upload 3.17

Ping 373

 

I must say that I'm using the same servers I used in the past (Swiss servers), i have firewall completely off (just in case there was problem with it), and i already set the buffer size in 256kb in Eddie client. I tried both with the last stable release (2.10.3) and the experimental one (2.11.9). And the network drivers are in their last version.

 

Is there anything else I can try?

 

Thanks,

I've noticed in the past week some irregularities with the AirVPN software too (random disconnects and slow speeds) and for the past 4 days, the speeds are down to almost nothing (I get lucky to received 100Kps). I tried the speed test from my modem and get full speed (gigabit internet) but the speed test through this website shows there's something wrong. I'm working with windows 7 too so maybe it's an update that broke the AirVPN application?

On my end, switching AirVPN off simply cuts off my internet connection with my computer.
