Fix for the internet lag and internet is fast. Works for me but will it work for you?

So I was playing around and pissed because I could not sync one of my programs do to data packets dropping like mad on my phone. I went into with resco registry editior and changed HKLM\Comm\Tcpip\Parms and changed the TimerWheelSize to Value of 5 and soft reset via software reset. (Like Psshutxp) Now the phone is off the hook and netfront is super smokin' fast as well as my company programs syncs now. Give it a shot and let me know your results. Attached is a resco registry file to make it easy to import reg settings.

******Update*******

After flashing many times last night, it seems the fix points to the changing of the DNS servers that is making the difference. I have some at XDA say they did not change the DNS but did change TimerWheelSize to 5 and their speed went from 600k to 1300k. This is not a solution for the internet disconnecting on its own. Its for speed! Below are Level 3 DNS servers which I find to be the quickest on the net.
I also changed my dns settings to the following: (Super Low Latency)

4.2.2.1
4.2.2.2

If your data connection comes up and asks for username password, leave it blank and checkmark save password...

AMAZING!!!!!

I cannot believe how fast this is, I'm dumbfounded... It couldn't get any faster.

No lag or lag lock, esp with Engadget.

Terrific. Pages load extremely fast on Netfront. A great find mikee4fun...

Btw, test web browsing capability while on voice call...

Tried, does not surf while on a voice call, can you? I remember a hack back in the days on the apache where you could talk and be on the internet at the same time. At least I believe there was... Hah

I installed the registry edit while I was on a BT call. I then clicked my IE (shortcutted to Netfront) and I browsed several pages while connected on a voice call. And theses pages were fresh meaning I had never browsed them before, therefore avoiding cookies from past sites...

I did encounter a IOTA error from Sprint (although I am with Alltel) since introducing this registry edit. I am running no2chems 5046 rom (Sprint based) with 3.27 radio, etc... but nonetheless great work mikee4fun!

Thank you for sharing the info! Works great! For some reason or the other when ever I go back into settings the DNS server ip's I entered are not checked and the default is selected. What gives?

WOW!

It LITERALLY takes less than a second before the page is connected and loading dude.

Scales tipped!!

Where do you go to change the dns settings?

EtherealRemnant · #9 (**permalink**) 02-13-2008, 06:37 AM

Start/Settings/Connections/Connections/Manage existing connections.

Click Edit... Next... Next... Advanced... Then click the Servers tab. Use specific server address.
