All of the TCP/IP parameters are registry values located under the registry key
Adapter-specific values are listed under subkeys for each adapter identified by the adapter's globally unique identifier (GUID).
To determine the GUID value for an adapter corresponding to a LAN connection in the Network Connections folder, do the following:
1.Open the Network Connections folder and note the name of the LAN connection, such as "Local Area Connection."
2.Click Start, click Run, type regedit.exe, and then click OK.
3.Use the tree view (the left pane) of the Registry Editor tool to open the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Network\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
4.Under this key are one or more keys for the globally unique identifiers (GUIDs) corresponding to the installed LAN connections. Each of these GUID keys has a Connection subkey. Open each of the GUID\Connection keys and look for the Name setting in the contents pane whose value matches the name of your LAN connection from step 1.
5.When you have found the GUID\Connection key that contains the Name setting that matches the name of your LAN connection, write down or otherwise note the GUID value.
6. Navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces\{GUID}
and add new key SackOpts REG_DWORD value 1
