Network Speed Boost for Vista

Seems there’s a trick to making Microsoft’s Vista’s networking go faster….  It’s easy to do and in some cases makes a big improvement.  In a couple of cases with me on the road, it’s made a difference.

In a nutshell, open up a command prompt and do this:

netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disable

It changes how the TCP/IP stack works and it might make your Second Life experiences better.  To undo it, to this:

netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=normal

You can read more about the details of it here in a blog post by Mark Minasi.
