I have vista business x86 on a laptop, and when I do anything while
logged into my business network (Cisco routers and switches), the
network performance is amazingly poor (programs like Outlook time out,
internet downloads run at around 4 kb/sec, file copy from shared
drives is OK speed but not great). Whenever I use a network set up
behind a linksys or dlink consumer grade router, I get normal
throughput.
I am not sure where to start looking. My XP Pro machines have no
issue. In Vista I see a few security event logs listing "windows
filtering platform" access denied errors (restricting ports with
svchost), but they don't seem to correspond timewise to the occurences
of Outlook timeouts and the like.
I have disabled IPv6 on my network connections just to be safe, but
still get the problem. Any ideas or pointers to similar problems would
be appreciated.
