If you have XP Pro (only pro) you can fix your reservebandwidth from default of 20% to 0%. type GPedit.msc in run Under the Local Cmputor Policy, click Administative templates. 2) on the right double click Network. This opens the tree on the right side, now double click the "Qos Packet Scheduler" . Now Double click "Limit reservable bandwith". This will open the proerties box for the Qos packet scheduler. Under the settings tab (which will open by default) click "enable" , then change the % to 0. Now windows won't slow down your broadband! Bad windows, bad, bad!
There is a bandwidth test as an extention. It works very nicely. I used it to test the difference by changing the % of bandwidth reserved and running the test. Made an inprovemnent form 1.5Mbph to 2.+ Mbph
