My connection speed for upload is 100 KB/s
But now I'm looking at resource monitor and it only consumes 6-15 KB/s (send/receive) for mstsc.exe service.
I'm starting to think that I've enabled some huge compression settings and it gets compressed that much that it lags because of the connection speed limit. I configured RDP 1 year ago and now I don't remember which settings did I tune.
Can anyone suggest which settings should I adjust (in gpedit) to use all my upload speed bandwidth for remote desktop usage ?
I don't care about image quality, speed is the most important thing.
I remember there was a post somewhere saying that having the Desktop Experience enabled would speed RDP sessions as opposed to turning off all the graphical enhancements. – Peter – 2016-08-18T00:59:07.267
Have you tried changing the settings in the RDP client to use a smaller desktop and turn off effects? – Moshe Katz – 2016-08-18T01:40:59.800
I have all effects turned off, 15 bit colors. I noticed some minor improvement in speed when I changed "Optimize visual experience when using RemoteFX" - Screen capture rate- highest; screen image quality: lowest. Also "Configure compression for RemoteFX data" - Enabled (Balances memory and network bandwidth) – rudolph – 2016-08-18T13:32:19.220
Lag is mostly unrelated to bandwidth. What type of Internet uplink are we talking about? What time does

My home PC's upload speed is 100 KB/s, DL 10 Mbps. Server's (where RDP is hosted) 100/100 Mbps – rudolph – 2016-08-18T14:01:35.057

I forgot to mention that RDP connection shows 3 bars (out of 4) and I have enabled all possible settings for UDP but it's still not showing that UDP is enabled in connection info window... – rudolph – 2016-08-22T02:01:12.290
bump.. I haven't been able to enable UDP. – rudolph – 2016-09-11T11:01:45.013
