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 xp,7 as well.
