Hi, when optimal settings are applied the other step options are greyed out, I had to select custom to be able to follow the remaining steps. But doing so changed all the other optimal settings also.
I guess the solution would be set all the optimal settings in custom, short of changing the program, I look forward to hearing from you.
1. Should I apply the optimal settings for gaming? I play Valorant. When I choose Optimal it also changes system responsiveness to Optimal instead of Gaming. Would I want to manually change it to Gaming?
2. Will Nagle's Algorithm Help Me At All? 3. I have Fibre internet, and according to the MTU/Latency tab it says to change MTU to 1492. How will this benefit me? Will it make a difference from standard 1500?
You can apply the optimal settings, then manually change the others as recommended above.
If the biggest MTU you can have online is 1492, you should update that on your PC. This will prevent packets from being fragmented/repacked by your router before being sent onto the internet, this takes processing time and may introduce a slight delay.
Whenever I go into TCP Optimizer as administrator and chose optimal, then apply changes and go through all that. I will reboot my pc and when everything is loaded back up, I go back in TCP and the settings are switched back to current automatically.
What can keep causing that?? Is there a setting in the optimizer or is my pc preventing it?
There are multiple reasons for what you are experiencing Jason. If you apply the settings as administrator they should be set.
At startup, the TCP Optimizer tries to read everything, however, some of the optimal/default settings may be the same, some are not being read reliably (depending on your OS version), and some may be network-adapter specific, so the TCP Optimizer doesn't know which one to read, or which setting was applied to what adapter before.
It works, finally reaching the speeds that I pay for. It practically doubled my bandwidth.
For anyone with an older modem/router, careful because it may not be able to handle the increased bandwidth. One of mine seemed to start having overheating issues, which may or may not have been caused by the increased network load. Even had to replace the AC adapter (seriously, the AC adapter just stopped working), but it's still hanging in there. |
