PIMPN MAGNUM Posted October 10, 2007 CID Share Posted October 10, 2007 Don't know if anyones aware of this. xp has a out of the box 20% resesrvable bandwidth cap. i stumbled across this tweak yesterday, simply sets your cap at 0%, enjoy If you have XP pro you can try tweaking your QoS reservable bandwidth settings using GPEDIT.MSC Go to START-RUN and enter GPEDIT.MSC then go to Local Computer Policy -> Computer Configuraton -> Administrative Templates -> Network -> QoS Packet Scheduler. Look in the right side and select Limit reservable bandwith. Double click on Limit reservable bandwidth. and set it to 0%. reboot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sinister666 Posted June 16, 2009 CID Share Posted June 16, 2009 though this tweak has been known for some time, i forgot about it till recently. i did this to my pc a while back and actually noticed about a 10% increase in speed with it. nice post for those that arent aware of it.

threegsus Posted March 27, 2010 CID Share Posted March 27, 2010 i cant access gpedit.msc.. it says 'windows cannot find gpedit.msc.. help plss.. Do you have XP or XP Pro? If you don't have XP Pro, you don't have gpedit.msc and it's not going to work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glnz Posted April 5, 2010 CID Share Posted April 5, 2010 Tried this but didn't see any change. I have Verizon DSL in NYC rated at 3 Mbps download and it typically tests at 2.6 - 2.7 Mbps actual. Stayed the same. The Windows notes on this parameter say the following: "Important: If a bandwidth limit is set for a particular network adapter in the registry, this setting is ignored when configuring that network adapter." Maybe that's why no change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
