I'm having trouble turning off Large Send Offload (LSO) on my network adapter. Despite following standard instructions and checking the settings, I can't find any option to disable it. I'm not very tech-savvy, so I'm hoping for a simple guide. The LSO feature is causing issues with my job, and I'd really appreciate any help! I have already checked the properties of my WiFi adapter and there's no LSO option there. If there's a way to turn it off using a different method, could someone explain it in a really simple way?

If you’re having those issues, how did you figure out that LSO is the culprit? What steps did you take to diagnose the problem? Just curious!
There’s a PowerShell command you can use to disable LSO if you can’t find it in the settings. Check out this link: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/netadapter/set-netadapterlso?view=windowsserver2025-ps. You just need to paste the command into the PowerShell window and run it. It should do the trick!
Thanks a lot! But could you let me know where I should paste that code? I could use a little extra guidance.
You might want to look for it in the Device Manager. Just go to Device Manager, open 'Network Adapters', find your adapter, and then check the 'Properties' under the 'Advanced' tab. Sometimes options get hidden there if you're not seeing them in the regular settings. Good luck!
Thanks for the suggestion! But I checked and there’s no LSO option in the Advanced tab either.
I went through a bunch of online tutorials and checked the Event Viewer. Whenever I had WiFi issues, the events log mentioned that 'LSO was triggered', which made me think it's the problem.
