The Unmatched Windows XP Broadband Cable Tweaks Guide

Does your connection crawl? I bet it does buddy, just try these few simple tweaks, lets get you fixed today. The following tweaks and modifications are the ones I personally perform to my Cable connection after fresh installing windows. Note-This Guide works with DSL and Cable Connections! The first thing I like to do is run over to Control Panel > Network Connections and "right click" Local Area Connection (Your primary connection) Then I Uncheck: "Client for Microsoft Networks" "File and Printer Sharing For Microsoft Networks" "QoS Packet Scheduler" Then I like to install LVLLORD'S TCP PATCH. (Read more info below) Microsoft Limited TCP connections in SP2 to 10! Regain lost speed by applying lvllord's patch.

Just download the patcher and execute it. It will automatically find the windows directory and ask, if it should increase/decrease. Enter C and change the value to 100, and confirm your changes.

After a successful patch, the new TCPIP.SYS will be automatically installed. Restart your computer After I get my Tcp nicely patched, I move on and Tweak my windows xp registry settings to unleash my cable connection's real potential. Don't be worried if I said "I tweak my registry", You wont have to manually edit it because I use a great free tool called Cablenut! So you downloaded CableNut? Good! Now you are ready to start getting information to use with the program. The first value that you will need to calculate is the Maximum Anticipated Latency of your connection. To do this, you will use the trace route command built into Windows XP.

Follow these steps to get the latency value to use for your connection Alrighty so now lets find our Maximum Anticipated Latency! To do this, Download a really big file such as the .NET SDK framework at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads While this file is downloading, run over and open up Command Prompt by opening "RUN" and typing in cmd. This brings up a nice big black window. Now you need to run what is called Tracert 5 times in this box and write down the highest number you get with every tracert.

So lets get this straight you need to run tracert 5 times each time to a different site. For example tracert google.com When you run it let it finish.can take up to 3mins then copy down the highest number. Do this five times, then DROP THE HIGHEST AND LOWEST VALUE and average the other 3 (add them all up then divide by 3). .
