Speed up you Internet 20% more!

Just three steps.

Thursday, October 27, 2005 by TYCUS | Discussion: Internet

Yes, it´s true, you can speed up your computer 20% more!

But how? Well, now i´m going to tell how...:

Step 1:
Go into the start button:


Step 2:
Go to execute button and tipe "gpedit.msc"(without the " "...):



Step 3:
A new window will appear: "Board of group", in there look for the option: "Administrative insoles(staff)".:



Step 4:
In there open "Web" folder and then look for an option that says: "QoS":



Step 5:
In QoS folder, go and select the option "Limit of reserved bandwidth" and now a new window will oppen, in that window be shure to select the second option(enable), and then go down to the option "Limit of bandwidth" and tipe "1".:



And that is all! Just press Ok button and your internet will speed up 20% more! But..., why just 20%? The reasson is that you system use 20% of you internet connection for other things(chat, updates..., etc.).


NOTE: THIS WILL JUST WORK IN WIN XP(HOME & PRO EDITION)!

This only works in PRO because there is no gpedit.msc under XP Home.

For XP Home Users:

Rightclick on your Desktop -> New Textdocument.
Copy/Paste the following Text into the "New Textdocument.txt" :

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Psched]
"NonBestEffortLimit"=dword:00000000


Rename "New Textdocument.txt" to "QoS.reg". Doubleclick "QoS.reg". Reboot.

For undo the changes open regedit and delete the key "Psched" in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\

nope...., since you need a true value for real use for other things that your pc need from internet connection...

mucho gracious Tycus & Maddox...it really does boost a hardwired DSL @ 10mbs to something close to my wi-fi @ 50mbs;had to manually edit the registry as the notepad thing didn't take but Maddox's roadmap was pretty clear to simply run "regedit" then open the appropriate reg key, add the new subfolder & change the value to Maddox's...excellent work on this heads up dudes
