Vista machine consuming most of internet connectivityI have a home network consisting of a combined wired XP Pro Desktop and a
wireless LAN system in place as well, all running off one modem/router combo DCHP server. When my niece goes on line with her Vista Home Premium laptop wirelessly, my desktop machine grinds to barely dial-up speed. Am on ADSL 3.0 Mbps speed via AT&T. None of my XP Pro laptops steal the connection capability away and if I close the internet connection on VISTA, speed returns, so something wrong within Vista setup somewhere, I think. Any help appreciated. Hi
Download this free util., and find out what the computer is actually doing while connecting to the Internet. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897437.aspx Jack (MS, MVP-Networking) Show quoteHide quote "Galen" <Ga***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:C0B9ECF1-2106-44EE-9EF9-5284E9A11355@microsoft.com... > I have a home network consisting of a combined wired XP Pro Desktop and a > wireless LAN system in place as well, all running off one modem/router > combo > DCHP server.

I downlaoded and saved the file that TCPView showed when I was not connected. I saw no connections that were based from my niece's laptop machine recorded here.

TCPView has be installed and run on the Vista computer. If it does not indicate that the computer's TCP/IP generate None stop traffic than it is Not Stealing bandwidth, but something else that causes this problem. It might be a Router issue. Some old Routers are Not full compatible with Vista. Check the support site of the Router to see if there is any mentioning of the issue there.
