Gadgets and Computers

Ever wondered why is it that you signed up for this number of mbps or kbps of broadband/dsl connection but it seems like your internet connection isn't as fast as it should be? Wanna use the full speed or your broadband/dsl connection without downloading third party softwares which would make or break your pc? Here's the catch...on default Windows XP only allows you to use 80% of your internet's bandwidth. Isn't that unfair for you? Here's a good way to let you use a hundred percent of your bandwidth.

1. Go to start
2. Choose run
3. Type in gpedit.msc and a Group Policy window will appear
4. Choose Computer Configuration>>Administrative Templates>>Network>>QoS Packet Scheduler
5. On the right part of the window you will see Limit Reservable Bandwidth. Double Click it.
6. Click the Enable radio button.
7. Set the Bandwidth Limit to Zero % and click apply and you're all set.

Note: If you have a really slow internet connection (i.e. dial-up connection)...don't wish it'll make a big difference. But it can help.
