- I didnt believe it at first... My GF uses OneDrive to back up her files on her laptop.. a week ago the internet slowed to a crawl... ping was between 250 and 900... download bandwidth was less then a meg per sec... and its happened quite a few times in the last week... and EVERY time... GF is uploading something to OneDrive.. once she shuts it off and I reset the router... everything goes back to normal.. but she is not downloading she is uploading so how can that effect download speed for my household?01-16-2017 01:32 PMLike 0

Good Luck!01-16-2017 02:47 PMLike 0 - I'm with Guest on this one. I've been having issues for a little while now. The ISP has spent many hours trying to determine what was wrong with my internet access. Ultimately they said it was due to Win 10. I googled it and tried updating my drivers and various other things, but nothing I tried seem to help. Today the network was slow again with high latency.
I remembered that I could go in and look at network resources to see what was using network resources on the PC. At the top of the list was OneDrive.exe with over 100,000 bytes/sec. So I re-ran the speed test and had the same dismal 5Mb throughput and 300+ms latency, then I ended the OneDrive process and reran the speed test for a 3rd time. This time the latency was 20ms and the download was 15MB. Right where it should be.
There's definitely something going on with OneDrive!!!03-16-2017 06:37 PMLike 0
