How to improve your internet speed using gpedit.msc


Description


Microsoft reserves 20% of your available bandwidth for their own purposes like Windows Updates and for other purpose. There are different reasons for internet speed but this setting will help to increase you speed.

Solution


Follow below given steps

Click on start à run à then type “gpedit.mscà click ok

                                              As shown in below image



 
Click on Local Computer Policyà Computer Configurationà Administrative TemplatesàNetworkà QOS Packet ScheduleràLimit Reservable Bandwidth.

                                                   As shown in below image
 
 
 
 

Double click on Limit Reservable bandwidthàthen trick is to ENABLE reservable bandwidth, then set it to ZERO 

Note: It will say it is not configured, but the truth is under the 'Explain' tab i.e." Determines the percentage of connection bandwidth that the system can reserve. This value limits the combined bandwidth reservations of all programs running on the system. By default, the Packet Scheduler limits the system to 80 percent of the bandwidth of a connection, but you can use this setting to override the default. If you enable this setting, you can use the "Bandwidth limit" box to adjust the amount of bandwidth the system can reserve. If you disable this setting or do not configure it, the system uses the default value of 80 percent of the connection. If a bandwidth limit is set for a particular network adapter in the registry, this setting is ignored when configuring that network adapter."

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 as well
