Disabling Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) can sometimes help resolve network stability issues or latency problems, especially with certain hardware setups. Here's how you can disable it on Windows:
🖥️ On Windows
🔧 Using Device Manager:
Open Device Manager (Right-click Start → Device Manager).
Expand "Network adapters".
Right-click your Ethernet adapter → Properties.
Go to the Advanced tab.
Look for an option like:
"Energy Efficient Ethernet""Green Ethernet""EEE"
Set the value to "Disabled".
Click OK and restart your computer if necessary.
🔍 Note: The exact name depends on your NIC (e.g., Intel, Realtek, Broadcom). Not all drivers expose this option. Also you may need to disable EEE on Network devices such as Switches and Routers.
