Most of Internet connections are working below capacity. A simple bandwidth test would reveal that your own Internet connection is working well below its capacity. some times below 60% of the bandwidth is utilized. Below are some of the tricks I have collected that may help you get most juice out of your internet connection
Increase bandwidth by tweaking QoS in Windows XP Pro
The following tweak applies only to Windows XP Professional edition. The default system behavior is that all 100% bandwidth is available, however, if there is a running application that indicates to the OS it needs to send high priority/real time data, then as long as it has the socket open, Windows XP will restrict “best effort†traffic to 80% of the bandwidth so that high priority traffic can be accommodated. Basically, applications can make this request to the operating system for QoS support using the QoS application programming interfaces (APIs) in Windows and this only applies if a specific app is requesting QoS.
If you’d like to change how much bandwidth is reserved for QoS (the default is 20% of the total bandwidth), do the following:
-
Make sure you’re logged in as “Administrator†(not just any account with admin privileges).
-
Navigate to START>Run and type: gpedit.msc
-
Navigate to Local Computer Policy > Administrative Templates > Network > QOS Packet Scheduler
-
In the right window, double-click the limit reservable bandwidth setting
-
On the setting tab, check the enabled setting.

Wordpress DISQUS Plugin With NoFollow Attribute
by R MAK on January 8, 2009 · 9 comments
in Softwares
As repeated request had been made to disqus people to fix this no follow issue. This issue has been inviting spammers of all kind to the websites installed with disqus commenting system.
I finally took the things to my hand and prepared a mod for the popular Wordpress DISQUS Comment System Plugin. I just added a rel=”nofollow” attribute to all the links I could find within the plugin files so that no link juice can escape.
With SEO getting tougher and tougher as more people learn about it, It is not good for your Google Standing aka. page rank to spill all your link juice through comments.
I am forced to launch the mod due to non-responsiveness of the disqus team. It seems like disqus is more interested in getting the link juice from the sites that have installed the plugin and it is not concerned about spam and related issues.
I have submitted the request to include this Modified plugin to wordpress.org here untile it get approved from wordpress you can do following
To save you the trouble, I have saved a copy of disqus-nofollow plugin used by me on this blog. click here to download it.
I normally use DO NO FOLLOW FireFox Extension to check the do follow or no follow nature of links on a page. it is very convenient and quick way to check any web page.
