Strange issue with one pc

[neodude]

Can you not set a static ip for the pc and then limit the bandwidth for that ip within your router? Does your router have any kind of packet capture facility?

Try running "netstat /b" in command prompt while it's uploading.

It tells you which processes are using the internet when you run it.

That's what I was trying yesterday and as soon as I'd do it the traffic would cease! Very strange behaviour.

I don't think I can have individual devices do that but I'll check.

Thanks for all the suggestions so far folks. I'll try these last few options but I'm seriously starting to think there's either a virus on there or some ms software misbehaving.

Right now I'm thinking back and om half sure it never did this before the install of office.

Well...looks like it's solved. The issue was windows 10 and office. They were basically acting as some sort of major p2p update hub. Disabled the options within windows and all is good!
