well Saksham, Unlike cable internet, DSL requires that your DSL modem be a certain distance from a digital subscriber line access multiplexer, which is also referred to as a “home office”. If your distance from the multiplexer is greater than 1.25 miles, which could really slow your internet down. I know this from personal experience. My family and I subscribed to DSL service in the early days of broadband internet. We signed up for the service and installed all of the correct equipment and software. But it turned out that we were too far away from the multiplexer, so we were not able to establish an internet connection. We had to switch to cable internet. Consult with your internet service provider to discover your distance from the multiplexer. Transfer rate, also referred to as throughput, refers to the speed at which data can be moved from 1 location to another. Network redirector buffers serve the purpose of optimizing your disk performance, and therefore allowing for the fastest possible broadband networking speed. If you increase the number of network redirector buffers functioning on your system, you could greatly increase your throughput. An Internet speed test following this change will yield noticeable results.
