Post: Speed Up Your Internet By 20%

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Microsoft reserves 20% of your available bandwidth for their own
purposes like Windows Updates and interrogating your PC etc

You can get it back:

-Click Start then Run and type "gpedit.msc" without quotes.This opens the group policy editor.
-Then go to:Local Computer Policy
-then Computer Configuration
-then Administrative Templates
-then Network then QOS Packet Scheduler
-and then to Limit Reservable Bandwidth.


Double click on Limit Reservable bandwidth. It will say it is not
configured, but the truth is under the 'Explain' tab i.e."By default,
the Packet Scheduler limits the system to 20 percent of the bandwidth
of a connection, but you can use this setting to override the default.

So the trick is to ENABLE reservable bandwidth, then set it to ZERO.
This will allow the system to reserve nothing, rather than the default
20%.It works on Win 2000, Vista, and 7 as well.

Thanks will be appreciated. Smile

Sounds like it could work, and this does exist in 7, but no noticeable speed difference. I think for the most part this is meant for client/server like in a business so applications and employee's don't chew up bandwidth
