These changes were suggested in MaximumPC magazine, for broadband users. (I've copied only main points)
.......
If the numbers are higher, the priority for each lookup is lower, often creating longer delays and some instability during the online experience. This tweak can work very well if the user keeps the DNS Resolver Cache up to date (i.e. flushes it occasionally so it can be recreated with working DNS entries) and the host file contains no out of date addresses. Some experimenting with low numbers in these four entries should improve any user's broadband connection.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\ServiceProvider]
"Class"=dword:00000001
"DNSPriority"=dword:00000001
"HostsPriority"=dword:00000003
"LocalPriority"=dword:00000002
"ProviderPath"=string:%SystemRoot%\System32\wsock32.dll
"NetbtPriority"=dword:00000004
"Name"="TCP/IP"
My questions:
1)Also for ASDL ?
2)Recommended to try or not ?
3)How could the suggested settings above be so far
from default and be safe? (my current settings
show numbers in the thousands!! instead of single
digits.
4)what is the DNS Resolver Cache mentioned?
