Lukor,
By the way, something else I've noticed. I just had at&t fiber installed (300Mb/s) at the house and with Web Shield activated there's a HUGE decrease in broadband speed using Ookla's broadband speed test.
With Web Shield active (all other shields active too)...
PING: 3 ms, DOWNLOAD: 228.26 Mbps, UPLOAD: 363.37 Mbps
After disabling Web Shield ONLY...
PING: 2 ms, DOWNLOAD: 372.59 Mbps, UPLOAD: 349.51 Mbps (my other 3 computers confirm this average speed)
I know Avast checking the download stream is going to take a bit of processing, but it seems like the CPU can't keep up and slows the overall stream down > 100Mbps. Is this about right on what's happening? I'm only thinking this because while the download is going on, CPU is pegged to 100% if Web Shield is active. When I disable it, CPU never goes above 80%
..for background, This machine is a Win10, Core 2 Quad (q9550) 2.83Ghz, 8gb ram.
Any developments on a solution for the Philips HUE issue? Were you able to use the fiddler capture?
Thanks,
Mark
