Defcon|Rich Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Recently we had a problem with a few of our staff that use Windows Vista to connect to the servers remotely and thought others might find this helpful. Symptoms are very slow login and browsing on the remote server. This seems to be a client issue which only occurs when using a Vista workstation. From XPSP2 or W2K3SP1 clients everything works properly. It appears the problems were introduced by the new networking features included with SP2. Disabling some of them client-side solved the problem. Open a command prompt on your client pc and type the following: netsh interface tcp set global rss=disabled netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled reboot Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monk Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 RSS isn't the problem, autotuning is. Autotuning should be disabled, as it causes more problems. RFC1323 should also be disabled, same with SYN Protection, among other things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defcon|Rich Posted October 6, 2007 Author Share Posted October 6, 2007 Agreed, I understand disabling autotuning fixed this for some people but no luck here.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
