Take Extra Bandwidth

Print This Post Print This Post Email This Post Email This Post

Microsoft decided to make Windows XP and Vista to take 20% of your internet bandwidth for itself. Why is this? I really do not know but according to Microsoft it takes this for reservation of all programs running on the system.

To take back this 20% you have to this the following:

1. Execute gpedit.msc (WIN + R)

bandw-1

 

2. Go to Local Computer Policy / Computer Configuration / Administrative Templates / Network / QOS Packet
Scheduler / Limit Reservable Bandwidth

bandw-2

3. Right Click on Limit Reservable Bandwidth and choose Properties. Enable it and put limit to 0%. (read the explain tab and you can see that by default windows takes this 20%).

bandw-3

Take what is yours and enjoy a better internet.
