Misc Suggestions

The following is a brief list of miscellaneous options you may try if you are experiencing slow network issues and the previous suggestions in this section did not work:

1. Make the work group names the same on all networked computers

2. Install the latest driver for the actual mother board you're using rather than relying on the Windows 7 built in driver.

3. Under the Advanced tab for the network adapter, disable both TCP Checksum Offload and UDP Checksum Offload for IPv4 options. Both settings are found by:

   • Open Control Panel > Network and Sharing

   • Select "Change adapter settings"

   • Right click network adapter (i.e. Local Area Connection), select "Properties"

   • Click on the "Configure" button and click on the Advanced tab

   • Select the two options mentioned above and use the "Value" drop down menu to change the setting.

4. Add exclusions in the Anti-virus software

5. Map both the IP address and the computer name
