Steam slowing down my internet.

[Rixxz2]

Right, so it all begins with me watching some YouTube videos, and noticing them loading humongously slow. So, I go to Speedtest.net. (My usual speed lays around 6-9mbit/s)
And, well, my speed was terrible (in my standards) 2 mbit/s, when I'm paying for 8, is far from good.

My first thought is my ISP fucking something up. To test this theory, I turn my main PC off, and boots up my netbook. I connect to my network wirelessly. And would you look at that, 7.5 mbit/s. Well, that shoves that theory out of the window.

I turn my main PC back on again. Still slow as hell. Now, I think of malware, when I randomly decide to turn off Steam. Boom. Back to 7.50 mbit/s. I turn it back on again, 2mbit/s.

I have no fucking clue what's going on what-so-ever, as steam's not downloading/updating anything. Suggestions would be appreciated.

on a serious note, contact steam support?

I reinstalled Steam. Solved it. I have no fucking idea what may have caused it, though.

You were download a game or an update.

No.

[Gummylamb]

is deleting clientregistry.blob the first suggestion in steam help threads?

[Skanic]

Well mostly deleting client registry.blob helps.

Funny thing is, I weren't.

Except that the cause wasn't found. But other than that, yeah.
