trmin8tor and Vinculum used our newssubmit to tell us:
From this site it shows how to expand your internet bandwith because it will improve your speed with 20%.
So 'WHO'is using that 20% check it out
This is more of a "counter what XP does" thing. In other words, XP seems to want to reserve 20% of the bandwidth for itself even with QoS disabled. So why not use it to your advantage. To demonstrate the problem, start up a big download from a server with an FTP client. Try to find a server that doesn't max out your bandwidth. In this case you want a slow to medium speed server to demonstrate this. Let it run for a couple of minutes to get stable. The start up another download from the same server with another instance of your FTP client. You will notice that the available bandwidth is now being fought over and one of the clients download will be very slow or both will slow down when they should both be using the available bandwidth. Using this "tweak" both clients will have a fair share of the bandwidth and will not fight over the bandwidth.
As our friend N.B. said: let's fix that 'bug', erhm "feature".
I did it myself & BEFORE i had a choke of 50 in CounterStrike. Now I've a choke of the round number 0. Now ... How do I get back the Windows 2000 search function? Then I can say WinXP rules
