Problem with reduced internet speed after installing Bitdefender Antivirus Plus

Dear Support Team,

I am writing to you because I have a problem with my internet speed. I have a 1 Gb/s plan, but ever since I installed Bitdefender Antivirus Plus on my computer, I noticed that my internet speed has dropped significantly. I ran some speed tests and they showed that I only get around 600 Mb/s on average.

I am wondering if there is any compatibility issue between Bitdefender and my internet provider, or if there is any setting that I need to change to fix this problem. I am very satisfied with Bitdefender's protection features, but I also need to have a fast and reliable internet connection for my work and personal use.

Could you please look into this issue and advise me on what to do? I appreciate your help and prompt response.

Sincerely,

PartosCZ

  • Hi,

    thank you for any kind of information. My main issue right now is with contacting support. I cannot create service requests and send them log files with screenshots. As many browsers as I can, I use them in any kind of mode but same issue with looping during sending requests.

    I don´t know how to process that.

    Regards.
