Users who use broadband internet access are most concerned about the network speed. Everyone uses various means to speed up various access methods (including ADSL, FTTB, Cable Connect), and the effect is certainly there, but it is often not particularly ideal. Here, the author introduces an effective speed-up method (this method is suitable for Windows XP/2003).

All kinds of broadband access methods are generally connected by network card, and the direct connection with USB interface is not stable, so it is rarely used now. First, make sure that the memory of your machine is above 256MB. This is because using this method requires opening a buffer in memory to improve the access speed of users. If your memory is too small, it will affect the operation of the system.

Click "Start → Run" and enter "MSINFO32". EXE "command in the" run "dialog box. Enter to pop up the system information window. Expand hardware resources →IRQ in turn, and then find out the IRQ resources used by the network card in the resource box on the right. Take my machine as an example, it uses IRQ 17.

It's so simple, it's easy to find after confirmation.

Then start to modify the "system.ini" file, click "Start → Run" and enter "SYSEDIT". EXE command In the Run dialog box, press Enter to pop up the System Configuration Editor window, switch to the system.ini file, then find the [386enh] section and add "IRQ 17 = 4000" below. "IRQ 17" is the IRQ resource used by my machine network card (this value is different for different machines, and its format is "IRQX=4096"). Finally, save the file and restart the system. This can improve the speed of all kinds of broadband internet access.

I used ZTE 83 1 ADSL modem to test in ADSL environment with bandwidth of 5 12K, and the download speed increased by tens of KB/s. ..

Let's take a look at the comparison of ADSL speed measurement before and after optimization.

Before optimization: the speed of your connection to the test point of Jiucheng Communication Network (located in Shanghai) is 189.45Kbps (23.68 bytes/second).

After optimization, the speed of your connection to the test point of Jiucheng Communication Network (located in Shanghai) is 343.02Kbps (42.88 bytes/second).

Everyone can enter info.net/internet/other1/speedcat.zip.

The software can automatically optimize the settings of MaxMTU, DefaultRcvWindow, DefaultTTL, NameSrvQueryTimeout, MaxSocket and NDI, NameCache and PathCache, PMTUDiscovery and PMTUBlackHoleDetect, COM port buffer, modem initialization string, TCP/IP entry, etc.

Sixth, browser setting and using skills.

Browser software is the most popular tool for surfing the Internet. In order to improve the speed, you can make some settings for the browser, such as turning off the automatic download of pictures, turning off JAVA, and setting the memory cache and the disk cache larger, in which "Verify the document" can update the pages in the disk cache with "overload". Cancel the startup page of the browser software, so that no page will be automatically loaded when the browser starts, which is beneficial to improving the speed. Always organize your bookmarks. It is a good habit to make good use of the multi-task characteristics of WINDWOS and open multiple browsing windows at the same time to improve the efficiency of surfing the Internet. Generally, according to the level of the machine, it is advisable to open 3~ 10 windows at the same time. When browsing the web, you can also send and receive emails and perform FTP operations.

You can also use some browsing accelerator software, modems and network optimization software. More offline browsing software can also greatly improve the efficiency of surfing the Internet. Try to use multiple threads when downloading files. Knowing the HTTP and FTP addresses of downloaded files, choosing FTP mode for downloading can also greatly improve the downloading efficiency.
