Speed up your internet by20%

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
--> Computer Configuration
--> Administrative Templates
--> Network
--> QOS Packet Scheduler
--> 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 as well.
