<h1>Optimize Vista 1 - Speed Up Internet Performance Dramatically</h1>Author: <a title="Kok Choon Kow" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/kok-choon-kow/37505.htm">Kok Choon Kow</a> Many Vista users have faced slow Internet connection problems, and the cause is most probably by unsupported hardware or ISP itself. To counter this problem, you need to optimize your Vista for better compatibility and speed. I will show you 6 ways to repair your connection:

Method #1 - Disable TCP Auto Tuning.

Vista is intelligent enough to be constantly automatic adjust Its' TCP configuration for maximum throughput, however, this advanced feature has introduced too many overheads for some unsupported hardware, some time you should manually configure the TCP settings with SG TCP Optimzer and disable Vista TCP Auto Tuning.

Method #2 - Install web accelerator.

You can try Google Web Accelearator or other commercial web accelerators such as Nitro or OnSpeed. Web Accelerator is basically a web proxy with server site compression. It will create a tunneling connection between your computer and the web server, compress every item before sending to you, hence improves the surfing speed.

Method #3 - Use static IP.

This method doesn't improve your speed, but it will speed up the time takes by your computer to establish a connection to the router.

Method #4 - Use OpenDSN.

You ISP DNS server might not response fast enough, try OPENDNS to improve your Internet web site response.

Method #5 - Increases DNS Cache.

You need to know the DNS registry before you can increase the cache. What this does is caching every query you make to the DNS server, so next time when you revisit the web site, the response will be instantly . Therefore, the more web site you cache, the faster when you revisit them.

Method #6 - Disable IPv6 and other protocol.

You should disable all unused protocol, do not let the extra overheads slow down your Windows.
