There are many softwares available on the internet today who have big claims of boosting slow internet connection speed but in fact none worked in reality. Some even claim to boost modem speed.

I am using dialup internet connection for over three years and I was constantly searching for softwares to boost my slow dialup internet connection. All of us know that the bandwidth of dialup internet connection is low and on top of that the connection usually stops transporting data after a few minutes. Most of the time one has to disconnect and redial. Having experienced all this I decided to tweak slow internet connection myself.

I tried several attempts and observed the results. Finally I found the solution.

Mentioned below are practically tested and verified steps.

There are many steps involved in order to boost internet connection speed. One thing to remember is that all of these are relevant to Windows XP service Pack 2.

Download and Install freeware cablenut software.

Double click "adjuster" and add the values as shown in the figure below.

Download and install freeware FreshUI software

Run fresh ui and expand "Windows System"

Expand "Network Settings"

Click on the key "Change PPOE the MTU Size".

In the "Protocol type size", "PPP Protocol Type" and "Protocol MTU Size" type zero in all the three fields.

Click “Change the Client Side DNS Caching Timeouts” in the “Network Settings” type zero in the “Change the DNS Cache timeout for negative responses” field

In the 'Network Settings" Click "Manage the reserved QoS Bandwidth"> Reserved Qos Bandwidth> change it to 0%

Open Windows XP registry. For this type "regedit" in the "Run..." in the "start" button.

Find this key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\ServiceProvider" and

Edit the following values

"DnsPriority" to 1

"HostsPriority" to 1

"LocalPriority" to 1

"NetbtPriority" to 1

Go to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
Explorer\Remote Computer".Delete the key "NameSpace" and also the sub keys.

Go to “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Software\Microsoft\MSMQ\Parameters”

Create the following two dword values and set to 1

DeferredInit

TcpNoDelay

Click start > Connect to "your dialup connection" > Properties > General > Configure > Uncheck all.

Click Connect to "your dialup connection" > Properties > Networking > Click QoS Packet Schedular under TCP/IP and uninstall.

Also under the "Networking" tab click settings of "Type of dial up server I am calling" Check "Enable LCP Extensions" and "Enable Software Compression"

Click TCP/IP > Properties > Advanced > Uncheck Use IP Header compression

Open Device Manager and click modem properties > Advanced > Change Default Preferences

Port speed 115200

Reboot your system.

These settings have helped me a lot to make my slow dial up internet connection into a significantly high speed dial up internet connection.
