Hi,

I have recently updated and since then my surface pro slows right down when I am connected to the internet. If I am not connected to the net it runs as normal but once I connect it slows down until it is barly useable. I don't even need to be using the net, it just needs to be connected.

I have plenty of space on my surface so that's not the issue. before updating it was running fine while connected to the internet. I tried updating to 8.1 but that didn't help.

Any help would be great.
Thanks!

Do you have many apps that are internet linked??Try closing all running apps and check performance.
