Vista is VERY Slow with Remote Desktop to Windows 2003 ser..

Hey Kerry Brown,

I have found out that it is not only my Remote desktop witch have a
speed-problem. If I download a file from IE the download speed is 900 KB/s,
but if I try Firefox the speed is 3 KB/s.

Then if I try to connect to my homepage via SmartFTP. The download/upload
speed is about 7 KB/s, but if I use Windows Explorer the speed about 7-900
KB/s.

My Outlook 2007 is also slow, when hit Send/Receive the speed is 4-5 KB/s.

Anyone who have an idea about what is happening?
I don’t think it is at network-problem sins the speed is at maximum when I
use IE and Explorer (My computer).

I have deactivated my firewall Windows Firewall but no luck. (the computer
is upgraded to Vista Business from a clean XP Installation)

Result of Ipconfig /all (Vista/Danish)

Hi again,
I have read one of your other posts and you tell one of the other members to
use this commando - "netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled"

I gave it a shot and now - 700 Kb/s on my Outlook, 450 kb/s on my FTP, and
so one...

What does this commando do, and is it possible to find the function in some
kind of GUI in Vista?

Thanks alot!

I am working on the same or a similar issue that I have narrowed down to network hardware although I haven't yet figured it out.

XP machines no problem, Vista machines have two issues, the primary appears to be that vista machines stutter on their downloads from the internet. Local is fine, but Im seeing download speeds of about 4Mb when xp machines see 7Mb at the same time. If you use http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest, vista machines will download for a second and then hesitate then download, hesitate, etc. downloading is very fast between hesitations.

This then appears to link up with the remote desktop issue. I can remote fine within the same subnet/router/switch but the second it heads out over the internet, I get a lag on the connection that makes me long for my old 28.8 modem.

Any network hardware guys able to shed light on possibilities?

Im using a cisco on the affected network, but I have a linksys at home that doesn't have this issue. Again, the issue is only with vista boxes, never with xp or 2k3 boxes.

Is this similar to your issue KaffeGoble?

This is in my experience so far, definitely a Cisco issue.

Has there been any additional thinking on the fix for this since the
original posts above ?

I don't see the original post above you reference, but usually disable
autotuning and rss will solve this issue:

netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
netsh int tcp set global rss=disabled

And reboot...
