Hi!
I need to reduce my computer internet speed 50%, but i want do it hidden. So can i do it without using software, or are there any software for that.

Thanks!

If you are using a wireless router, you could drop from G/N/Mixed to B.

You could also select a remote DNS server.

Curious why you would want to do this.

If you want to do this in hardware, then you need a router with QoS reservation support. Try the Cisco RV series.

Linux-based software routers can do the same thing if you're handy with virtualization.

Fiddling with your DNS settings will not do what you want.

I'm puzzled as to why you want to do this, as your specs state that your current download speed is just 512Kb/s. Reducing this further will mean that you're not much better off than those who, by limitation, are forced to use dial-up.

Your internet speed is slow, want to tweak internet speed BUT your operating system is Windows XP
Professional. By default, the Packet Scheduler of Windows XP Pro limits the system to 20 percent of the
bandwidth of a connection, but you can use this setting to override the default. That packet is QoS (
Quality of service) for Windows XP. This packet may not be often used, so Why don’t we change the setting
to tweak internet speed.

Determines the percentage of connection bandwidth that the system can reserve. This value limits the combined
bandwidth reservations of all programs running on the system. If you enable the setting, you can use the
“Bandwidth limit” box to adjust the amount of bandwidth the system can reserve. If you disable this setting or
do not configure it, the system uses the default value of 20 percent of the connection.

But If a bandwidth limit is set for a particular network adapter in the registry, this setting is ignored
when configuring that network adapter.

Here step by step to TUNE UP your bandwith limit in Windows XP > Group policy :

1. Go to “RUN” and type : gpedit.msc

tweak internet speed - gpedit.msc

2. Administrative Templates > Network > QoS Packet Scheduler

tweak internet speed - QoS packet

3. Double Click > “Limit Reservable Bandwith”

4. Limit Reservable Bandwith > Enabled , Bandwith limit 20% change to > 0%

tweak internet speed - change bandwith limit

5. click OK, and Restart your connection.

Please let us know if that helps.

Actually this is the problem, if my collage friends come to my house, they use my internet connection more than 3 hours, so they eat my time. So i need to show i have slow connection.
