I experienced problems with speed for five different individuals that I personally resolved by turning it off. Would it work? No. After fixing it, their internet speed improved. Should it? Definitely not. It still resolves the issue, which is on my checklist now. Looking into what causes it, IPV6 has been one of the last I’ve addressed, but recently it’s been the main concern for five to six people this month. The other case involved using the incorrect port on their router.
Are all these settings in one place? I wonder if an upstream provider accidentally set a limiter or QoS rule that pushes IPv6 traffic into a low-priority queue. That wouldn’t be ideal, would it? It’s possible someone turned on IPv6 downstream and another provider made a mistake, causing those problems. Also, remember that Speedtest by default only supports IPv4—use ipv6.speedtest.net to test IPv6, but even then the main site still defaults to IPv4 when DS is active.
I've reviewed the attempts you've made to resolve the issue. All tried solutions provided no improvement. You've tested a new cable, changed ports, reset the router, reinstalled drivers, and checked speeds. The ISP reported no problems. Internet speed remains stable at 100Mb/s. Your plan to repair or reinstall Windows 11 seems reasonable. Let me know if you need further guidance.
You checked your Router Archer C6 via Tp-Link and received a specific message. You're looking for possible router settings adjustments to fix the problem without replacing your Windows installation.
You want clarity on why adjusting your network settings might help. Setting a static IP can indeed provide stability and consistency, which may resolve issues caused by dynamic changes. It’s important to approach this carefully to avoid introducing new problems. First, check if your router supports static IP configuration and understand its benefits. Then, follow the steps to change your IP address safely—typically through your router’s admin panel or device settings. Make sure to save any changes and verify the new IP works correctly. Document each step you take so you can track what’s happening and gather useful information about the situation.
I completed the entire Command Prompt process for clearing DNS. I tried the Windows System Repair path: System > Recovery > Fix Problems Using Windows Update, but no results were found. It seems reinstalling Windows might be necessary. I want to verify if using Windows' built-in Recovery option in Windows 11 to reset will preserve my files, or if a full format and reinstall are required to fix this issue.
The windows you're referring to are the Recovery option I shared earlier. It's a feature designed to help restore your device when issues arise. Let me know if you need more details!
