Hi all,

 

I'm running 6.2 RC2. I have a Win7 VM that can run http://fast.com at 50 Mbps. This is using br0.

 

I recently converted a physical Win10 machine into a VM. I installed the VirtIO drives, and the adapter is described as "Red Hat VirtIO Ethernet Adapter #2", and the properties say that it has a 10 Gbps line speed. But http://fast.com only runs at 2 Mbps.

 

Here's my Win7 config:

 

    <interface type='bridge'>
      <mac address='00:16:3e:4d:0f:48'/>
      <source bridge='br0'/>
      <target dev='vnet0'/>
      <model type='virtio'/>
      <alias name='net0'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x03' function='0x0'/>
    </interface>

 

and here's my Win10 config:

 

    <interface type='bridge'>
      <mac address='52:54:00:5b:70:b4'/>
      <source bridge='br0'/>
      <target dev='vnet1'/>
      <model type='virtio'/>
      <alias name='net0'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x02' function='0x0'/>
    </interface>

 

For the Win10 VM, I'm passing through the GPU and one USB controller. I have "Enable PCIe ACS Override" enabled. I also enabled MSI interrupts.

 

I'm using the drivers from virtio-win-0.1.118-2.iso, if that matters.

 

I'm stumped. Help?

Here's my whole Win10 XML, if it helps:

Does your Win10 VM detect the virtual network adapter as 10Gbit?

Does your Win10 VM detect the virtual network adapter as 10Gbit?

 

Yes. Sorry, I said 10Mbps line speed when I meant 10Gbps line speed.

I started with a clean Windows 10 install, with UEFI this time, and I have normal network speeds again. I can only guess that some sort of cruft in my old Windows 10 installation was contributing to the problem.

Did you have "Glasswire" installed?

Never heard of it.

 

Another oddity that was fixed by starting clean: QEMU guest tools installed properly. Before it was failing half-way through.
