Super_Spartan 56 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 (edited) I was trying to download a few files and I noticed that my download speed is unusual so I ran several tests on speedtest.net and my 100MBPS download connection was giving me 480-50MBPS only but my upload was unaffected (20 MBPS) So I then paused the NOD32 protection and tested again, no change. I have bad experience in the past with this pause protection not really doing its thing so I went ahead and uninstalled NOD32 and rebooted and what do you know, the internet speed is back up to 100 MBPS To make things worse, I just upgraded my license from a 7 PC to a 10 PC License valid until 2020 All I want is a good file scanner and nothing that slow my internet connection This is on the latest stable build of Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit Build 15063.483 Edited September 20, 2017 by Phoenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jadinolf 131 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 (edited) Hello Am I correct that you are blaming NOD32 for your download speed? Hard to believe. Have you checked again lately? Edited July 30, 2017 by jadinolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my 2 computers the virus definition update is not working properly and complete blocks the internet until the update is manually cancelled.

Administrators Marcos 5,252 Posted September 19, 2017 Administrators Share Posted September 19, 2017 Does temporarily disabling protocol filtering in the advanced setup make a difference? If not, what about renaming "C:\Program Files\ESET\ESET NOD32 Antivirus\ekrnEpfw.dll" in safe mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I then disabled Smart Connect and manually connected to the 5GHz band and the speed is back to normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
