Speed up your internet by 20%

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. 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%.
