We have a web service that is slow in production. This is normal in QA and UAT, but they are located at our corporate headquarters. But production is in the data center in the cloud. I ran wirehark and found that it makes at least 6 calls for NBNS WPAD (each timeout), each of which takes about 3/4 of a second, which makes it very slow. I want to disable WPAD because the environment is not configured to use it, but it still calls and just wastes time.
My platform is a Windows 2008 r2 server with IE9. I want to completely disable WPAD DNS queries (and NBNS queries). We do not use a proxy server. We do not use DHCP. I want to stop WPAD, but I have not succeeded. I tried the following: 1.disable "automatically detects settings" in IE 2.disable "use automatic script configuration" in IE 3. Check that the WinHTTP web proxy auto-discovery service does not start automatically, it is configured to run the manual, so I think that everything should be in order. 4. Done "Netsh winhttp show proxy", which tells me direct access (without a proxy server).
What am I missing, what needs to be disabled?
