How to increase your broadband connection speed

This tip is designed to increase Broadband speed in windows xp while using standard network interface cards (NIC) that are connected to ADSL modems, or when using any directly-connected USB ADSL modem. To speed up the internet connection speed we need to configure a special buffer in the computer's memory in order to enable it to better deal with interrupts made from the NIC or the USB modem.

This tip is only recomended if you have 256mb ram or higher.

• Identify the IRQ used by the NIC/USB modem.

Follow these steps carefully:

• open the system information tool by running MSINFO32.EXE from the run command.
• Expand system summaru > Hardware Resources > IRQs
• Look for the listing made for your NIC (in my case - a intel(R) PRO/100+ management adapter). Note the IRQ next to the specified line (in my case - IRQ21)

In case of USB modems you will first need to find the right USB device used by your modem. Follow these steps :

1. open the device manager tool by running DEVMGMT.MSC from the run command (or by right-clicking my computer > hardware tab > Device manager button)
2. scroll down to universal serial bus controllers and expand it.
3. Right-click the USB root Hub and select properties. Note that you might need to do so for all listed USB root Hubs (if there are more than one ) in order to find the right one.
4. In the power tab, look for your USB ADSL modem.
5. In the resources tab look for the assigned IRQ (in this case - IRQ21)
6. This is the IRQ we're looking for
   

NOTE- IRQs and modem names might vary...

• Modify the sysem.ini file

Follow these steps:

1. Run SYSEDIT.EXE from the run command
   
2. Expand the system.ini file window.
3. scroll down almost to the end of the file till you find a line called [386 enh].
4. Press enter to make one blank line, and in that line type
   

irqX=4096
where x is the designated IRQ number we found in the begining, in my case it's IRQ21

5.click on the file meny,then choose save.
6.close sysedit and reboot your computer

Thats it! you have done successfully.Happy computing

The program can aid both the novice and the advanced user in tweaking related TCP/IP parameters in the Windows Registry, making it easy to tune your system to the type of Internet connection used. The tool uses advanced algorithms, and the bandwidth*delay product to find the best TCP Window for your specific connection speed. It provides for easy tuning of all related TCP/IP parameters, such as MTU, RWIN, and even advanced ones like QoS and ToS/Diffserv prioritization. The program works with all current versions of Windows, and includes additional tools, such as testing average latency over multiple hosts, and finding the largest possible packet size (MTU).

The TCP Optimizer is targeted towards broadband internet connections, however it can be helpful with tuning any internet connection type, from dialup to Gigabit+ :)
