Increase internet speed in windows 7, vista and xp by 30% to current speed

Here is the hack trick that will increase your internet speed overall by 30%. How it is 30% that I will tell you later. First follow the steps by steps instruction given below.


1. go to run prompt (windows key + R) and type "gpedit.msc"




2. you will get the local group policy editor as seen below




expand this to QoS Packet Scheduler
(Administrative Template > Network > QoS Packet Scheduler)


3. Then look on the right side on the entry "Limit reservable Bandwidth"




4. Double click it and open, you will get a pop up windows like this shown below.




You can see by default Not Configured options is selected. Select the Enable option and below make its value to 0%. which is by default 20%. By this you are increasing your internet speed by 20% which windows is occupying to manage the network, this was required at the time when we are using very slow internet around 14 kbps over dial up network. Today it is not required.


The other 10% will come from here, see below.


By default Windows update is keep on checking for updates for all of the installed product and the windows it self, which is not requited all the time. that you can do when you are not working. You can manually update your windows.
Go to the following location.


a. Users running windows vista/windows 7 OS's

2. You will get the property windows like this. see the left bottom side of the windows, there is an option like "windows update". Click to open it as below

5. Drag and drop the "important updates" menu and select the last option - Never check for updates. And click OK. If you get any security warning click on yes and close all the windows.
You need to restart to take place the effect.

b. Users Running windows xp

1. Right click the my compter and you will get like this, select the Automatic update tab and select the "turn off automatic updates option"

    To increase your internet speed
    >You can use latest version of Firefox,or Google chrome or Opera browser.These are good browsers.
    >Reset your modem and router or unplug them and replug it or switch off the modem and switch on it again daily twice.
    >Try to avoid many downloads simultaneously.
    >While watching videos online like Metacafe or you tube you can wait until the video buffers and then watch it.Avoid downloading while watching videos.
    >You internet security software it helps to protect the PC or laptop from internet threats .If these will affect your PC or Laptop ,the system speed will get reduce.So browsers get crashes again and again,you cannot browse fast.

    But your internet plan also need to be good.If you are using very slow speed connection,you can contact your ISP and upgrade your plan.Even after followed these steps your internet speed slow means you can contact your ISP and inform the problem.They will fix this.To check internet uploading and downloading speed i would suggest the site Scanmyspeed.com here you can check speed in Mbps and MBps.
