Browsing the web, watching twitch, a few days ago it was fine and lately it has been fine UNTIL I open EVE. At which point its like I’m using a 128kb connection. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Is there a backup port I can use to run eve through so it doesn’t choke my internet? ---

Well I\ll have to check but I have my launcher set to ‘download everything’ and I did a file integrity verify cycle, all mickey mouse here. I’ll get back you on that. ---

He’s right i reckon, looks like the client is downloading resources. ---

![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/5/b/5b89573aed343ed967d1cb7976733eecac29f1fb.jpg) So this is a stream running in the background before opening, stuttering and shitting out the very second I load the eve client. The instant I close the eve client everything returns to normal. ---

I have the feeling this has something to do with my win10 updating 2 days ago. It has made it impossible to browse the net while playing EVE. If I turn off EVE my internet connection recovers and I can do whatever I want at full speed. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/8/e/8e00b27868b12d86dbb1afaa88d4a25ccdd92e55.png) ---
