Many of us know the "Limit Reservable Bandwidth" setting in Group Policy Editor. But does it actually increase internet connection speed?
I haven't tried it with Windows 10, but I experimented with such techniques on my old XP without noticeable results. And I gave up snake oil remedies early on.
I set it to 0% and got an extra 500MB/s download! Didn't this already get beaten to death about 20 Windows releases ago?
You have 100% of you bandwidth all the time, but if an app e.g. which supports QoS like Skype is running while you download something then Skype gets 'a higher' priority to ensure you not get interrupts or disconnects. Some Routers also have this ability too. But there is no reason to entirely disable or uninstall it, it's a wrong myth re-spelled over the internet since W2k days. Windows updates doesn't use QoS it only uses some kind of P2P sharing which is 'optional'.
If so, I don't know why is this still circling over tech blogs. Hasn't P2P sharing system implemented originally in Windows 10? Thanks for the explanation.
Just remove all network protocols from your adapter, including QoS, leave only IPv4 and IPv6 disabled. All those features are supposed to "optimize" your internet, like superfetch, but they can cause problems.
Well what she said is kind of misleading, I did not see the word WiFi, So I wondered what she was talking about
