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.

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?
