Speed up your Internal network & file transfers when they are slow using ARP cache cleaning
Improve Your PC’s network performance by cleaning up the Windows ARP cache.
The ARP cache can play a significant role on your network connected Windows device. If it wasn’t used, connecting to other PC’s or devices on your network would be quite a hard thing to do.
But if you find yourself with some rogue or just wrong ARP cache entries, this can be bad for your device and your mental health!
Try and clear them using the method in the video and let us know if it helps or you find some weird entries in the list.
Commands (admin level)
arp -a (to list the ARP cache)
netsh interface ip delete arpcache (this will clear the ARP cached data)
ARP or Address Resolution Protocol in Windows is responsible for resolving IP addresses to MAC addresses to speed up connection over a local network. So instead of asking the router where is a particular device, again, it would simply use the already resolved IP to connect quickly. To get this done, it maintains a cache named ARP Cache. This post helps you understand and clear ARP Cache in Windows 11 and Windows 10.
The ARP or Address Resolution Protocol cache is an essential component of the Windows Operating System. It links the IP address to MAC address so that your computer can effectively communicate with other computers. An ARP cache is basically a collection of dynamic entries created when the hostname is resolved into an IP address and the IP address is resolved into a MAC address. All the mapped addresses are stored in the computer in the ARP cache until it is cleared.

Hi, Mike. Awesome video. I learned that in IT school, but it doesn't hurt to have a refresher every so often. Another way to speed up your internet and make it a little safer is to use Cloudflare's DSN, as it is fast and also helps to block malicious content. 1.1.1.2 1.0.0.2
I noticed sluggish whenever I type or whenever watch Youtube videos. What would be the fix for it?
Poppey has left the building after flushing her networks!
