ANSWERED Ethernet Connection / TAP Adapter / Router / 100Mbps

[seedyunder 1]

Hi!

 

Having a strange issue I could use some help with.

 

I have a media server that is connected through Gigabit Ethernet to my router

 

VPN OFF : it connects at full speed and the router ui shows the wired connection is "1000 Mbps"

 

VPN ON : initially it connects at fast speeds, correctly through the vpn, but after 10-20 minutes it starts getting capped at 100Mbps and the router ui shows wired connection is "100 Mbps"

 

If I then switch VPN OFF the speed continues to be capped at 100Mbps until I reboot the router.

 

In windows the TAP adapter "status" show speed is "100 Mbps"

 

 

Does this "100 Mbps" status mean anything ?

 

Is it possible the TAP connection is reporting to the router that it is "100 Mbps" and the router sets it accordingly ?

 

Thanks for any help

I ended up fully uninstalling tap-windows-9.21.2

Debugging installation problems

 

and manually installing tap-windows-9.22.1

Download release list

 

Back to super speeds ; )

 

 

also checked "disable driver upgrade" in Eddie advanced settings, just incase

Wow, I was beginning to wonder where they put this list as it wasn't on swupdate.openvpn.net anymore. Thank you for the link!

I have exact the same problem.

 

I un-installed tap 9.21.2, re-installed 9.22.1 resetted my router, but tap9 is still showing 100mbps

hence very slow system responce.

 

Switch of AirVpn, and I'm back to normal speed / system responce.
