I must say the version is weird. 
We released a Windows 10 driver not much ago. 
Beside that which versions (kvm, spice) are you using? Are you using a recent viewer? 
New versions implements different code which requires less bandwidth (should not 
be a big problem with LAN but you would make sure).
