Generally windows reserves 20% of the bandwidth provided by the Internet service providers. So if we can reduce the limit to 0, then we can use the complete bandwidth allocated for us.
- Go to Start -> Run
- Type "gpedit.msc" to open the group policy editor.
- Navigate to "Local Computer Policy" -> "Computer Configuration" -> "Administrative Templates" -> "Network" -> "QOS Packet Scheduler" -> "Limit Reservable Bandwidth."
- Now, double-click on the option named "Limit Reservable Bandwidth" and change the value from 20 to 0.
The third-party DNS servers are always better than the default BSNL DNS servers. So changing these can help you increase the download speed of the BSNL broadband.
- Go to Start -> Control Panel -> Network and Sharing Center/Network Connections -> Open "Local Area Connection" and click on "Properties" button.
- Now click on "TCP/IP" and in the DNS address fields, replace the current DNS servers with the below two addresses.
- Click "OK" and restart the Internet connection.
That's it! The above tips worked excellently for me to increase my BSNL broadband speed.
Note: Windows 7 Home Edition (64 bit) doesn't have gpedit.msc option (group policyeditor). Hence, skip the first step and go with the second option if you're win 7 home user.
