Found this recently... might help speed up your connection.

How To Increase Bandwidth by 20% Windows XP

For some reasons by default upon installation
of your Windows XP Win 2000 Microsoft reserves
20% of your available bandwidth for their own
purposes like Windows Updates and interrogating
your PC, etc.

Well you can have the option to override the
default setting "Break the Rules" , If u
change it to 0 then the 20 % increase in your
bandwidth.

Click Start then Run and type "gpedit.msc"
without quotes.This opens the group policy
editor, then go to:

1.Local Computer Policy
2.Computer Configuration
3.Administrative Templates
4.Network
5.QOS Packet Scheduler
6.Limit Reservable Bandwidth.
7.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 "0". This will allow the system to reserve
nothing, rather than the default 20%
(It works on Win 2000 as well.)
Baguiophoria!

Bandwidth, in internet connection sense is like the maximum speed your internet connection can access the internet.

For example, dial-up internet connections have a maximum bandwidth of 56kbps (KiloBits Per Second). 8 bits is equal to 1 byte. The average webpage size is 60 KB (KiloBytes), on a 56kbps bandwidth connection a 60 KB page would take 8.5 seconds to load.

hehe

Bandwidth is compared to a highway the wider the highway the more cars can pass to it. Thats the best way i can explain what bandwidth is.

aren't those two tests using different routes? the recent one is taking a longer route ~500 mi if that's what that means.

thats the good news.. longer route should have lower result but instead it has given a higher one.

baka hindi ka naka log as administrator or wala kang administrative rights kaya di mo mabuksan un.

It's actually normal that you're using a shared internet connection. What Aimi meant was maybe the user account you're using on your computer doesn't have administrator rights that's why you can't run the gpedit.msc file. Maybe you can ask the person managing your office's computers if he can log you in as administrator.

Btw I suggest you leave at least 1% reservable bandwidth so your computer can still get Microsoft updates.

I guess even if you make it 0% updates can still run. I did it and it works.

Don't know what happened but my upload and download rates suddenly boosted. Here's my latest test:



Compared to this previous test:



Did the test 10x and the result is still high.
