Malaysia , yeah im using toonel,i was going through the beginners guide and i find toonel really important cause my IP limits me to 5gb a month of downloads. BUT toonel slow my connection extremely , when i utilise toonel , my browsing is super slow ,i followed all their instructions yet its terrible...is this common or did i do something wrong...

The TCP Settings are correct.

Post your speed at Singapore server and several servers near by.

Hello Angelinedev..

1. That's the nature of an internet connection over a mobile phone line. Much depends on your distant and clear line of sight to the cell tower and the clarity of the airwaves.
2. What Signal do you got on your Mobile Connect dashboard and how much signal bar?
3. At the tray icon you can see Status HUAWEI Connection, double click this and see the Speed: ?Mbps.

This is when i changed the TCP window ,just experimenting...any comments? not sure what im looking for =[

If you are experimenting, after ever change you should also do at least one speedtest to see if it is any different. Probaly run three speed tests and compare them.

If I were doing this, I would test at least two times at each TCP Window setting at different times of the day. Once when there is low traffic and once when there is high traffic volume.

Record: Time of day, TCP Window used, and Speed tests results.
You would probably also want to check the TCP Analyzer Results to see if they change.

Where do you put your modem ? Near electrical devices ?

Angelinedev · Post by **Angelinedev** » Tue Oct 07, 2008 3:44 pm

well my pc is beside my TV , and my stereo system and also my satelite decoder.. my modem is right above my cpu,cause the cable is short.

Angelinedev · Post by **Angelinedev** » Tue Oct 07, 2008 3:52 pm

this tracerts that im posting is with the TCP window of 256960,i read the one of the posts if we set TCP window too high it will slow down the speed.so i just set it back to 256960.Should i do a tracert with TCP Window: 513920 ?

Anyway below is a tracert after pulling my modem as far as i could from electrical devices

My average download speed after 3 tests was approx 1500 kb/s , my IP max is 3.6mbps.Should i keep my TCP window at 256960 or 513920? Is there an improvement for the tracert?

As you can see the 'Request timed out' in the tracert, that's the nature of mobile phone line connection. Show your ISP this tracert and see if they will help !

I'd use 513920 for TCP Window value.

Just one last thing,yesterday i used cablenut and followed the tips on the numbers that should be keyed in,ever since then my connection speed has been freaking slow. So after i reboot and opened cable nut clicked on the option delete registries and reboot again,but its still so so slow,is it just coincidence ? or is there other options i need to delete or change?

Hi angelinedev... Please... kindly guide me with STEP-BY-STEP tweaking methods... I am just a newbie and beginner... thank you...

What I am using are:

- Celcom BB basic (384kbps)
- Vodafone-Celcom BB modem (as per web promotion) 3.6mbps
- window vista 32bit home edition...

Your guidance would be much appreciated...
