How to modify DefaultTTL using regedit

Configurare noua (How To)

Situatie

Time to Live (TTL) tells routers how long a packet should stay in the air while attempting delivery before giving up and discarding the packet. When the value is often high, your computer spends more time waiting for a failed packet to deliver, effectively decreasing the amount of productivity in your network.

Without a value set, Windows waits 128 seconds for the transaction to finish. This makes your computer lag terribly if you’re in the middle of something and your connection with a server unexpectedly goes south.

Here’s the location of the key in your registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters

Add “DefaultTTL” as a DWORD value within the “Parameters” key. Set the value to anything between 1 and 255. The best value is 64, although you can set lower values if you wish to have the packet killed more quickly.
