Slow internet speeds after installing Hamachi
I've been having this issue for so long now! For some reason, my internet is blazing fast until I install Hamachi. Certain website downloads are affected but others aren't. for instance, downloading a zip file from "downloads.oneplus.com" WITHOUT Hamachi shows 3 minutes left. AFTER installing Hamachi, that same file now says 20 Minutes.... Same issue happens with Microsoft's download servers, when trying to download the Windows 10 iso, Hamachi just DESTROYS the download speed when my internet is more than capable of downloading large files quickly!
Even uninstalling Hamachi leaves the same affect, almost like there's something left in the system that causes this, registry data maybe? Any pointers?
- Try this to check the status of Receive Window Auto-Tuning Level - netsh interface tcp show global - and if it is disabled, turn it on with - netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=normal - This helped me and two mates. The settings need to be run with admin rights cmd (and shift+ctrl when you run it). - As far as we understand it you would most likely want Receive-Side Scaling State enabled as well. - netsh interface tcp set global rss=enabled - We have not tested Hamachi after changing these settings. Nevertheless, just wanted to share because this problem was making us crazy.

- Elinor_Dashwood7 years agoActive ContributorDainisLV Kotala It's not ideal - but I mutually block all traffic between peers that I know are on the same LAN. This forces the traffic to use the physical LAN connection instead of the Hamachi VPN connection. It means the peers on the same LAN always appear as "red" to each other, but it gets around the slow traffic between machines. 
- Soporte_Pixvs10 years agoActive ContributorHello. You have to download an older installer and re-install the hamachi for works again.
