    netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=normal

    This helped me and two mates. The settings need to be run with admin rights cmd  (and shift+ctrl when you run it).

    As far as we understand it you would most likely want Receive-Side Scaling State enabled as well.

    netsh interface tcp set global rss=enabled

    We have not tested Hamachi after changing these settings. Nevertheless, just wanted to share because this problem was making us crazy.

I setup hamachi as discussed here . The objective was  to router all traffic from computer B through computer A.

 

This works, but the internet is very slow and I mean dialup slow. I get 'waiting for tunnel' for at-least 10 seconds after which website loads slowly. 

 

I have 100mbps connection, so its not my connection speed.

    If you have a paid Hamachi subscription there should be no connection delays.  This is only a restriction of the Free version.
