Haven’t had any issues wrt bandwidth, Win10, or iOS. Still have a Win7 system but haven’t used it for the forum lately. Unfortunately I will have to upgrade my Win7 system to Win10 at some point due to some applications no longer working properly after upgrading.

Has there been issues with the site software / bandwidth ?

I foolishly updated my PC to WIN10 on Friday & Microsoft helpfully didn't bother its backside copying any of my favourite sites / passwords (thankfully Google did !)

However, the 2-step authentication facility was taking on average 45 mins to respond with the passcode, that's only valid for 15 mins !

Thankfully, as you can now see I managed to get back in, with the response e-mail from the website being almost instantaneous...
John, I haven't had any issues and I have been using WIN10 since it came out. Yep the Google backup of sites etc., is great. One thing with WIN10 that I have found is that it automatically defaults to online backup of files etc., which I found slows down connection speed, so I disabled mine. My backup is to a separate hard drive.

More moaning from me...

Has the global front page had an issue ?

(www.defencetalk.com)

Simply getting a list of forum names / pages on the LHS of the screen, that are hyperlinks.

No pretty pictures / backgrounds, etc.

Used to get this often on Windows Internet Explorer, as one of the scripts in the background wouldn't run, or some 3rd party software supplier has updated a widget that screws the page up.

For clarity, I'm running Chrome& have had no issues with the page till today.
