6. How do I use the TCP Optimizer ?

The short version:

1. Select your advertised maximum internet speed from the "connection speed" slider bar. (the maximum available bandwidth, in kilobits per second, not your LAN speed).
2. Choose your Network Adapter, or check to "Modify All Network Adapters" is using another type of connection.
3. Choose the "Optimal settings" radio-button near the bottom of the program.
4. Click "Apply changes", and reboot when prompted by the program.

The right way: Find your Maximum MTU value, learn what all the settings mean by reading our articles, ask questions in our forums and tweak the settings accordingly using The Optimizer in custom mode :)

Notes:
