    Has anyone tried running Killer Networking E2500 / AC1535 with Hyper-V in Windows 10?

    I have a new Alienware 17R4, and as soon as I create a Hyper-V Virtual Switch that is connected to either Killer NIC, the connection speed basically tanks down to 10 KB/s.

    If I then remove the virtual switch, the problem immediately goes away, and I'm back to gigabit speed.

    Has anyone tried this?

    Maybe @Killer_Networking can help you.
    Which driver version are you running?
    Try disabling advanced stream detection and see if that helps you.

    I may have already replied to you on Reddit. Apologies if not - the post looks similar. If so, feel free to close either one, or both, and to just contact me directly, if you prefer. I get notifications either way.

    Are you using the latest Killer Control Center, found here?

    http://killernetworking.com/driver-downloads/item/killer-control-center-x64

    If that alone doesn't solve it, try disabling Advanced Stream Detect in the Killer Control Center, and please let me know if that solves it.

    If that doesn't do it, try going with the driver-only package. You can download the driver-only package here - http://killernetworking.com/driver-downloads/category/other-downloads - then uninstall everything "Killer" from your Apps and Features menu, restart your machine, install the driver-only package, restart again, and then test.

    Please let me know which one, if any, works for you. You can also reach out to me directly here - http://killernetworking.com/about/contact

    Thank you for the tag, and almost everything I suggested. We might actually have a trend here. If you see anything else here on the forum that I don't see, I wouldn't mind at all if you tag me on it.
