TCP properties for IP = 24.66.201.220 ()
Note: Read the FAQ if the above is not your IP address.
Browser/OS = Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98; Q312461)

TCP options string = 020405b40103030201010402

MTU = 1500
MTU is fully optimized for broadband.

MSS = 1460
Maximum useful data in each packet = 1460, which is equal to MSS.

Default Receive Window (RWIN) = 256960
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 2 bits
Unscaled Receive Window = 64240
RWIN is a multiple of MSS
Other values for RWIN that might work well with your current MTU/MSS:
513920 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 8)
128480 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 2)
64240 (MSS x 44)

bandwidth * delay product:
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 10278.4 kbps (1284.8 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 4111.36 kbps (513.92 KBytes/s) @ 500ms

MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON

Time to live left = 55 hops
TTL value is ok.

Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF

Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = ON

IP type of service field (RFC1349)= 00000000

Your settings look fine. All that information you posted above is not needed to tweak your internet speed.

How are your download speeds compaired to your caps?

Please X out your IP address from your Analyzer test.

I upgraded to WinXP home edition )
It all seems to be good right now, dont want to test cuz my ram caught on fire so i'm temp runnng 128 till more gets in tomorrow

Caught on fire? How did that happen?

Yeah, I'm curious. What do you mean your RAM caught on fire? Enlighten me please since we have very comparable systems. AMD 1.4GHz AYHJA stepping, A7M-266 MB/512MB Mushkin 2100 DDR, GF2 Ti 64mb, etc etc etc

Edit out your IP address.

No doubt. I just had a hassle today with someone packeting mine. I think I pissed someone off in Counter-Strike or something. Oh well.

If I had a big puppy like that I would use RWIN 64240:)

I'll try that out Lobo. On cablenut, what locations do I put that into? I haven't used it forever.

Try DefaultRcvWindow, GlobalMaxTcpWindoSize

Err... big puppy? LOL his system doesnt matter.

A RWIN is merely a # that will wait till how many bytes are transferred till sending an acknowledgement packet.

No wonder everyone loves you

ew Xp home sucks

HalfLifer is correct... Your computer specs dont matter at all..! I have a P3 500MHz and a P4 1.8GHz and both are tweaked, and both download speeds are well above 2Mbps.. Playing online games or browsing the internet, my P4 wins, easily!

Oh, and by the way int0x6h, go back hit the edit button on your first post and change your "TCP properties for IP" numbers to XX.XX.XXX.XXX

You dont want to pass that out
