i have a 500 mhz 128 ram cpu i just got dsl and it is slow as a slug.....
MTU = 1492
MTU seems to be optimized for PPPoE... If you are not on a PPPoE connection, consider increasing your MTU to 1500 for optimal throughput.

MSS = 1452
Maximum useful data in each packet = 1452, which is equal to MSS.
MSS is optimized for PPPoE. If you are not on a PPPoE connection, consider increasing your MTU value.

Default Receive Window (RWIN) = 65535
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 0 bits
Unscaled Receive Window = 65535

For optimum performance, consider changing RWIN to a multiple of MSS.
Other values for RWIN that might work well with your current MTU/MSS:
511104 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 8)
255552 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 4)
127776 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 2)
63888 (MSS x 44)

Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF

First are you on PPPoE and what OS

win 98 and like i said i am a newbie, what is PPOe??

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Tue Apr 17, 2001 6:43 pm

PPPoE you have to log on with name and password.
PPPoE ( Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet ) is a method for building PPP sessions and encapsulating packets, as described in RFC2516. Although it is not a standard, PPPoE is already being used by a number of DSL providers. It requires either routers that have built-in PPPoE support, or PPPoE software to "dial up" and establish the session.

yes i have PPPOe i have to log in every time i reboot

If your on pppoe your MTU and MSS are fine. If not Use an mtu of 1500, i use 1496 because i get less packet loss at that setting. Try a higher RWIN. You can try the system.ini tweak but it doesn't work on all nic.

Go to Speedguides tweaks here-below in my signature. Once on patch page you need Vtcp386 Fix
patch for your OS (Make sure you get right one) Download and install, reboot, and retest and do this please so I can make sure patch is in:
At top where it says edit click and select, Select all,
Then go back to same edit button at top, click and select copy.
Come back to Speedguide, same thread you were on, in post reply box, with cursor blinking at begining of box go to top, edit, click, select paste, click, this will put information in box. Thank you.

Which patch (speed) do you have installed

Isuckwithcpus · Post by **Isuckwithcpus** » Tue Apr 17, 2001 7:07 pm

i d/led this patch....

MS Vtcp.386 fix for Windows 98

from that link at the bottom

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Tue Apr 17, 2001 7:11 pm

Speed patch, if you do not have it installed get PPPoE patch off patch page this site

Isuckwithcpus · Post by **Isuckwithcpus** » Tue Apr 17, 2001 7:17 pm

ok i got the only speed patch off this web address..... http://www.speedguide.net/Cable_modems/cable_patches.shtml

is that not the right one (i feel like a retard)?? and thanks for your help lobo, i really need it

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Tue Apr 17, 2001 7:21 pm

You need this one sguide_tweak_98_ME_PPPoE and read how to install it after download and unzipping

ok after that patch (lol)

then do u know why i am downloading at 5-7k still?

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Tue Apr 17, 2001 7:35 pm

Call ISP, not patch, sir

Isuckwithcpus · Post by **Isuckwithcpus** » Tue Apr 17, 2001 7:38 pm

is my rwin ok or does that need some adjusting?

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Tue Apr 17, 2001 7:41 pm

I don't know what it should be but what patch put in I'm on cable but you can ask around
