Vista Network Helper
Vista Network Helper v1.5
I’m a laptop user and connect frequently to new or different networks (wlan or lan) and I often come across the problem to connect to the internet or networks. So I decided to make my own batch file to change the network settings to solve the issue.
Desiged for: Vista Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, Enterprise and Ultimate, Vista 32 bit and Vista 64 bit
Network Types: Wireless Network and Wired Network
Official Support: keznews/forum

Disable TCP Auto-Tuning can be used to solve following proplems:
* Poor intermittent network performance.
* Slow network loading.
* Unable to open and load some websites or webpages using Internet Explorer or Firefox, where the blue loading bar keeps running for a long time, but the pages fail to load.
* Java applets fail to download a and open.
* Cannot receive email or download from POP3 mail server by email clients such as Thunderbird.
* No mail arrived although users may see the message ”receiving 1 of 3 messages”, and eventually the receiving process will time outwith the error number 0×800CCC19 timeout.
* Slow email sending or retrieval using Thunderbird and other clients.
NEW Change TCP/IP Connection Limit: (Based on Defcon’s patch and code)
*Once installed you can have 70,000 half open connections, these connections are temp connections anyways.
* You can change the limit to any setting you want.
* By increasing the limit you will be able to speed up P2P (Peer 2 Peer) applications like µTorrent, BitTorrent, BitComet, Azureus, BitSpirit, eMule (eDonkey network), BearShare, Direct Connect, DC++, ApexDC++, or even P2PTV such as PPLive, PPStream, Sopcast, TVAnts, Peer to Peer, Web server, FTP, and many other applications. Basically, it will make Torrents faster as well as all these other apps you need. 
Installation:
* double click on the setup.exe - this will install and start the application
(maybe you have to run it as admin)
Uninstall:
* All changes can be reverted to the initial set up
