Network Properties?
So when you open up network properties in Win10 you see...
-Client for Microsoft Windows -File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks -QoS Packet Scheduler -Internet Protocol (TCP/IPv4) -Microsoft Network Adapter Multiplexor Protocol -Microsoft LLDP Protocol -Internet Protocol (TCP/IPv6) -Link Layer Topology Discovery Responder -Link Layer Topology Discovery Mapper I/O Driver In addition there are advanced configuration properties you can set which may vary by adapter... -Energy Efficient Ethernet -Flow Control -Jumbo Packet -Legacy Switch Compatibility Mode -Packet Priority & VLAN -Protocol ARP Offload -Protocol NS Offload -Speed & Duplex -System Idle Power Saver -Wake on Link Settings -Wake on Magic Packet -Wake on Pattern Match So of all this bullsh*t... what is actually needed? What should be enabled/disabled? And I can see from the Network Connection Details that NetBIOS is enabled. Why is that idiot thing still enabled and hidden away on win10? Is there anything else hidden away that should be disabled? Thanks |

I also disabled NetBIOS. The NetBIOS was hidden under IPv4 PropertiesAdvancedWINS I left the adapter settings at their default values. |

I also disabled NetBIOS. The NetBIOS was hidden under IPv4 PropertiesAdvancedWINS I left the adapter settings at their default values. Would NetBIOS still be used for printing ? The two MS nameserving functions might be NetBIOS and SSDP, and the SSDP one hides in a HomeGroup Function-something-or-other service. After HomeGroup was deprecated, the SSDP one is still used for... something. (You can't turn off all seven services that HomeGroup used.) When SSDP was first put on a modern Windows, it wasn't used for much at all (inventory pictures of your setup was the only function then). Windows 10 still supports SMBV1. In Control Panels, Programs and Features : Windows Features, you can tick a box and install it. Suitable for WinXP networking, or perhaps an older Linux might use it. I've not had reason to adjust the NIC parameters. There should be a "standard set" for each NDIS version. To me, as long as the link operates at max_rate, I'm pretty happy and my interest in adjusting those parameters is limited. There are still things that prevent full Windows Share transfer rates, but I don't think it's a function of those parameters. Because the numbers are all over the place. Some equipment combinations work just fine, others not so much. Paul |
