Speed Up Vista's Networking Big Time - Windows Central Forums

Thanks to Dave over an Windows Central Forum for this. Just cut and paste this line into your Windows Vista elevated command line to supercharge your Vista networking:

netsh interface tcp set global rss=enabled congestionprovider=ctcp ecncapability=enabled autotuninglevel=normal chimney=enabled

...then press enter.

What's an elevated command line, you ask? It's a command line run as an Administrator, from a dos box in Windows. The easy way to do this is:

- Click on Start button.
- In the Search box, type in Command Prompt. Command Prompt will show up in the search result.
- Right click on Command Prompt icon and select Run as administrator.

After you've entered that in, restart the computer and you should be off and runnin'! Please be aware that your results may vary, but generally the speed increase is noticeable. Go forth and surf in speed...
