To save yourself some of your network bandwidth, and potentially
increase your throughput speed by 20%, follow these steps:
1) Click Start, Run, type gpedit.msc, click OK.
2) Navigate to Computer Config, then Admin Templates, then Network,
then QoS Packet Scheduler.
3) Open Limit Reservable Bandwidth, select Enable, enter 0%, click OK.
4) Verify that QoS is still enabled (it must be enabled, or else the
bandwidth is not saved) by going to your Network Connections, picking
the various connections, checking their properties, and ensuring that
there is a checkmark next to QoS for all of them.
5) Reboot.
:D
Note: This feature is not available on Windows XP Home Edition
Good point, Christo. Heh, I guess I posted it in the wrong section ;)
BTW, are you sure about the path as i do not find it?
Thanks man. Will try shortly :)
Also don't work. Cant find the file!
Yes, I managed to misspell the blooming thing !devil
I had it as .smc instead of .msc
Edited to reflect the correct spelling :D
Note You need Administrator rights on the local machine to install QoS Packet Scheduler
To install QoS Packet Scheduler
From the Start menu, point to Settings, and then click Network and Dial-up Connections.
Click the Local Area Connection on which you want to install QoS Packet Scheduler, and then on the File menu, click Properties.
Click Install, click Service, and then click Add.
Click QoS Packet Scheduler, and then click OK.
Click Close twice.
Note It is not necessary to restart the computer after installing Packet Scheduler.
I was under the impression that QoS was installed automatically.
It certainly has been on all the WinXP Pro systems I've installed...
!confused
