I have a small LAN at home. Gateway to the Internet is
WinXP Home, workstation is a WinXP PRO (Laptop). When the
laptop is connected to the internet, through my gateway, I
monitor (View Network Connection) the LAN connection and
it screems aapproximately 4 billion packets every other
second, therefore I have a slow connection. If I kill DHCP
Client it kills all connections. IF I do a ctrl+all+del
and view the Windows Task MAnager, I see a svchost.exe
using approximately 16MB of memory. I took a chance and
killled it. IT worked. The screeming stopped and I could
still surf the web. I matched the PID
using "tasklist /svc" and found the following services
running:
AudioSrv, BITS, Browser, CryptSvc, Dhcp, dmserver, ERSvc,
EventSystem, FastUserSwitchingCompatability, helpsvc,
HidSvc, lanmanserver, lanmanworkstation, Netman, Nla,
RasMan, Schedule, seclogon, SENS, ShellHWDetection,
TapiSrv, TermService, Themes, TrkWks, uploadmgr, W32Time,
winmgmt, WmdmPmSp, wuauserv, WZCSVC
Which one is causing the 4bill packets and why? Can I kill
any of these and do I need all of these for a simple home
network?
Thanks,
Jaime
