Posted by Jason, PC Tips Box May 14, 2009<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you use Windows XP Professional then it is possible to squeeze an extra 20% out of your internet connection. By default Windows XP Pro holds back 20% of your Internet speed for various services like windows update and spyware checks.<\/p>\n

If you want to tap into this locked speed then make the following changes:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Go to Start-> Run-> and type gpedit.msc<\/li>\n
  2. Expand the Administrative Templates branch<\/li>\n
  3. Expand the Network tab<\/li>\n
  4. Highlight QoS Packet Scheduler<\/li>\n
  5. Select Limit Reservable Bandwidth and check the enabled box<\/li>\n
  6. Then Change the Bandwidth limit % to 0 %<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Once you have done this select apply and restart your PC. After rebooting you should see a noticeable improvement in your net speed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
