how to speed your internet connection

Post by spirit »

hi :D
For my 1st post i will explain how to change bandwidth limit... :wink:

Windows xp reserves 20% of your bandwidth for QoS…(quality of service)you can speed your internet connection by reducing or eliminate 8) it (as I did.. haven’t seen any side effect. )

1. Run gpedit.msc
(group policy will open)

2. In the 1st window pane, expand; Administrative Templates, then Network.
3. Select QoS packet schedule.
4. Move to the right window pane and double click on Limit reservable bandwidth.
5. On setting tab, Enable the limit reservable bandwidth.
6. Change the bandwidth limit to lower or 0% Apply
It done
thx for reading my post :D
