My standard ping was always 45 ms with a certain game. However, after upgrading to Windows 10, it has increased to 55 ms.
Strangely enough, after downloading new updates, the ping goes back to 45 until I restart to apply the updates.
However, until I apply the updates, I get a lot less fps in-game, so it's either faster ping or better fps.
I have no idea why any of this is happening. Why does my ping go down when I update, but before applying updates? Is there something using my internet full-time to search for updates? If so, how would I stop it?
Microsoft uses P2P (think BitTorrent like software) to do updates. If you've downloaded updates, but don't have them installed, they're in good condition to get uploaded to other computers. http://www.pcworld.com/article/2955491/w...stems.html
Also here's a read from a former Mozilla guy about how you shouldn't use 3rd party antivirus in favor of Windows Defender.
