    Are you uploading? Are you broadcasting (PC) images? Have you done a complete anti-virus/Malwale scan?

    a bit of information about what this device is? although, no matter what it is it's probably not something legitimate going on i wouldn't of thought.

    Mate, looks like the Malware truck has hit your high road!

    Download Malware Bytes and run a scan.

    I would be dubious of believing those numbers, you have been on line for 50 minutes, at 100mb and transmitted what looks to be peta\exabytes worth of data.

    What happens if you reboot the machine?

    Your machine might be a zombie being used as part of a DDoS attack on someone. Such a scenario could increase your outgoing packets to high levels as your machine only needs to send out the TCP/SYN packets and no data as such.

    Get a virus scanner on it or if you have the skills format and reinstall your OS ASAP if you haven't got a decent AV. Try Microsofts Security Essentials, its free and I highly recommend it

    are you wirelss?

    are you encrypted?

    are you sure your next door neighbour isn't steeling your bandwidth?

    run a virus scan and if your not encrypted whilst being wireless then stop doing the MCSE and do the A+.

    Like SimonD said, with that level of packets even if a few of his neighbours were using his connection, its very unlikely his connection could upload any meaningful data with that many packets in 50 minutes, its much more likely to be flooding out ICMP packets or something similar i.e. a smurf attack. You can often find your computer doesn't always do it meaning it could be a pulsing zombie . . . . maybe

    Its unlikely to be someone stealing bandwidth, since the screenshot is the local machine's net config, and is indicating a high sent from that machine - not the network.

    Bad NIC driver. 100% guaranteed. No way a botnetted box would send that many packets in that space of time. Im-pos-si-ble.

    Update your NIC driver and see if the problem is resolved. If it is, I claim my five dollars.

    For comparison, here's a screencap of one of my NICs. The box has been up for nearly a month, and has at least fifteen RDP sessions open to various boxes on my domain, has had 20 or more 3Gb linux distros & MS isos downloaded through it, runs my connection to VirtualCenter, and has logmein running to my work PC pretty much constantly.

    Yes. Like I said, upgrade your NIC driver.

    Just out of interest, what is your broadband upload speed?

    I agree with Zeb, the figures are impossible and being wrongly calculated by the NIC driver.

    it happened again yesterday and i upgraded the driver ....actually my ISP plan is 256kbps-2mbps, which means while downloading the speed would be 2mbps..but when i check the download speed it is showing more than 30mbps :blink:blink and my upload speed is the worst ever seen not even .2mbps...can we believe the broadband speed testers? where could i find my real download speed?
