This topic was mentioned few days a go, but I had no functional instructions.

Well, I found this:

Dramatically speed up Windows XP networking (Professional Edition only) NEW!
For some reason, both the Windows XP Professional ships with a new networking service called Quality of Service (QoS) enabled by default, even though this service is only of use in large corporate networks. At home, and in smaller offices, QoS is best left disabled, however, and doing so will speed up networking operations up to 20 percent. Confusingly, turning off QoS in Networking Properties will not actually free up the lost bandwidth. Instead, you must load up the Local Group Policy Editor (see the tip Use the ultimate configuration tool, below, for more information) and tweak some settings to get QoS out of your system for good.

For instruction log to the following link, scroll half a page down and read the rest.

Dramatically speed up Windows XP networking.

The word Dramatically has to be taken with poetical license, but you can give it a try.
