Yes, you can also boost up internet speed connection using cmd trick. This trick is simple and I would like to say this trick won’t increase speed internet connection dramatically but definitely it will boost the existing connection to better performance. So, lets see how to do this.

Steps to perform to boost internet connection using command prompt

- Click on Start and Select all programs
- Click on accessories and select command prompt
- Now,run cmd as administrator
- Type following lines in command prompt and hit enter

> netsh int tcp show **global**  
> netsh int tcp set global chimney= **enabled**  
> netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel= **normal**  
> netsch int tcp set global congestionprovider= **ctcp**

_You can all do it this way,_

## STEP 1

Optimize your computer’s bandwidth settings by using the Windows Group Policy Editor (GPedit). Go to the start menu and click “run”. Type “gpedit.msc” and press “enter.” On the left side of the screen, click on “administrative templates” and select “network.” Next, click on “QoS packet scheduler” and then click on “limit reservable bandwidth.” Next, change the options to “enabled” and change the bandwidth limit to zero percent. This will increase your Internet speed by 20 percent.

## STEP 2

Reset the Windows network sockets. An operating system uses network sockets to send information through a network. To reset the network sockets, go to “run” and type “cmd” to execute the command and prompt program. Now type “netsh winsock reset” and press “enter.” Restart your computer.

## STEP 3

Increase the speed of Internet Explorer. Open the command and prompt program, type “regsvr32 actxprxy” and press “enter.” This will increase the speed of Internet Explorer by about 10 percent.

## STEP 4

Open your default Internet browser, and surf the web to test the new performance of your Internet connection.

I used the second method and fond it useful.
