Tuning Windows Vista TCP For Broadband Speed
I have tried six different programs and fourteen different registry hacks in order to gain the best broadband browsing experience I can from Windows Vista. I did all of my testing from DSLReports.com/speedtest and chose the Los Angelos test server and flash based testing.
My conclusion:
I am exactly in the same margin of speed as I was before I started optimizing anything, there is no apparent way to tune Vista, it comes flexible and autotuned by default for best browsing speed and performance. No software or registry tweaks I found gave me any performance improvement at all.
My cox seems to be stuck at about 7.5mb downstream and 2mbps upstream, yet the service claims I have 12mbps downstream, I can’t see it on any testing or tweaking no matter how much I play around with it.
Has anyone else found a noticable way to tweak and improve Vista broadband performance and had clear measurable increases?
