Tune Internet Speed by changing DNS Resolution fine tune Internet access speed:

Tip on improving DNS resolution. Internet browsing is such an exciting and easy
experience now a days that we have almost forgotten the amount of work that goes
behind the scene to make this all happen. We only feel bad if we can't find som
ething easily or have to wait for a long time (I have heard many people saying W
WW stands for world wide wait not too long ago!!!) Well with changes in technolo
gy and falling prices we have far better hardware and software to do this job bu
t fruits of fine tuning have always been great and would continue to remain so.
One of the things that should happen before Internet connection would go through
is DNS resolution.DNS stands for Domain Name Service. Even though XP does a fin
e job of handling DNS resolution, you may still gain by increase the DNS Cache s
ize. To do this you would have to add following entries in registry. Save what i
s written below in say "dnstuning. reg" file and import it in REGISTRY but openi
ng registry editor and going to IMPORT option from top menu. [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Dnscache\Parameters] "CacheHashTableBucketSiz
e"=dword:00000001 "CacheHashTableSize"=dword:00000180 "MaxCacheEntryTtlLimit"=dw
ord:0000fa00 "MaxSOACacheEntryTtlLimit"=dword:0000012d
