- People don't drop as much anymore & have stopped moaning about lag.
- This might not work as well if your router is not set to bridge mode.
- I will not answer questions.
- I play DotA on war3.co.za

1. Open the registry editor by going:
Start->Run and typing "regedit" then pressing enter.

2. Nagivate/Browse to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces\"

3. Look in each of the keys inside the folder ( they look like random numbers and letters; {E948EA59-875E-48C8-A971-ED3294BE5F84} )
and determine which one is your network connection. The interface with your current IP is the one you are looking for.

4. Right-click in the right hand pane and add a new DWORD value/ name it "TcpAckFrequency" of type REG_DWORD and set the value to 1.

5. Bookmark this as a favourite, named "TcpAckFrequency"

6. Add a new key called "KeepAliveTime" of type REG_DWORD and set the value to = e678 (59000)

7. Bookmark this as a favourite, named "KeepAliveTime"

8 Nagivate/Browse to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSMQ\Parameters

9.Right-click in the right hand pane and add a new DWORD value, name it TCPNoDelay, then right click the entry and click Modify and assign a value of 1.

10. Bookmark as "TCPNoDelay"

So if something goes wrong - delete those entries under your favourites.
