Windows 10 VM Internet Speed Issues

[D3m0nicSoul]

Hello,

So I have a windows 10 virtual machine installed on my FreeNAS server. When I run a speed test I get somewhere around 80 to 90mbps. My internet speed is 240mbps and I have no problem meeting or exceeding this on the other VM I have running on the same server (Microsoft Server 2016) I am currently running FreeNAS-11.2-RELEASE-U1 and both servers have similar NIC settings running VirtIO's newest version. I tried reinstalling the drivers, resetting my NIC setting and not setting anything static and playing around with everything in the adapter settings like disabling ipv6 and whatnot. Does anyone know of anything that I should check? I use this as a download box so I need the max speed possible. System specs below.

Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690 0 @ 2.90GHz (32 cores)
64GB of ECC ram
2 x 1gb Nics (only currently utilizing 1 of them)

Did you have any issues running VM on this 11.2 release?
I posted there about an issue im having, I wonder did you ever experience it?

I have not had this issue. My Windows 10 VM was setup before this release and my server 2016 was setup after. I wonder if that has anything to do with it? Maybe I will try to spin up another windows 10 VM. It sounds like your issue has to do wth not finding the hard drive or permissions?

So I recreated a new windows 10 VM and it has the same issue. With this one I inststalled windows fresh with the virtio driver and tested and it has the same issue. It sounds like something with windows 10. Another post I saw somewhere else recomended adding a separate NIC but I cant see how that would work when server 2016 is find with the on board NIC. Any ideas?

Evening everyone, does anyone know if there is a fix for this? I am running into this issue and after trying with the following, I still cannot download any faster than 80Mbps on a 300Mbps network.

-using Intel e82545 (e1000) (no change)
-using VirtIO (no change)
-installing a dedicated network card and then trying the above on it (no change)
-set network interface of dedicated nic to "Disable Hardware Offloading" (no change)

It doesn't seem to matter what I do, I cannot get faster than 80Mbps. Does anyone know if maybe Windows 10 has something built into it that is causing all of these issues? I have an Ubuntu vm that is able to download at my 300Mbps without any issues, so I know it is not FreeNAS.

Any tips or points in the right direction is greatly appreciated.
