Hey guys

well i took that speed test analyser thingy and im just wondering what it all means, hehe.. i have a basic idea.. and what you think i need to changed if anything

fast ? slow? terrible? horrific? anything i can do to make it better?

SpeedGuide.net TCP/IP Analyzer
TCP properties for IP = 61.10.249.132
Note: Read the FAQ if the above is not your IP address.

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) = 204400
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 2 bits
Unscaled Receive Window = 51100
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)
256960 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 4)
128480 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 2)
64240 (MSS x 44)

bandwidth * delay product:
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 8176 kbps (1022 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 3270.4 kbps (408.8 KBytes/s) @ 500ms

MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON

Time to live left = 49 hops
TTL value is ok.

Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF

Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = ON

IP type of service field (RFC1349)= 00000000

46790 connections tested since 03-10-2001, 14:30 ET
Analyzer version: Beta 0.94

my COMPUTER is

PII 400MHZ
128MB RAM
CABLE MODEM TERRAYON .. not capped i believe..

oh and WIN2k Pro

Thank You

oohh just before i forget, im located in HongKong so that might have something to do with speeds... let me know

The first test above looks fine, what size CPU is in it

DiaL-9 · Post by **DiaL-9** » Sat Mar 24, 2001 8:25 am

what do you mean whats size cpu is in it? PII 400mhz

if thats what you were lookin for

Thats what I wanted, you might on adjuster raise RWIN to 373760 and leave Global max blank

hmm ok ill try that =]

Test looks fine, now try a speed test

DiaL-9 · Post by **DiaL-9** » Sat Mar 24, 2001 9:50 am

can you direct me too a speed test? or tell me what to do.. to do a good speed test?

Do this and print it too!
How do do speed test
1. The best time is early in the morning (3 AM - 6 AM)
2. Make sure defrag has been run so no files are fragmented
3. Delete Temp internet files, not while testing, but after each test. IE browser, click tools, internet options, click on delete files and no this will not harm system, just get rid of temp files
4. Go to a fast server such as www.happypuppy.com and click on 10 demos, select a LARGE file to download (not all of it , just most of it, before you click cancel) this will show you how fast you are downloading, it's not going to be quick except except early in morning when not many people on net. I recommend you go to www.analogX.com and download Net State live, run this while downloading as it will give you avg of your download speed, really all you need on Net Stat is incoming data, incoming totals and Local machine, right click on Net Stat anywhere, stactics and check these 3 items, the rest need not be checked unless you want them, all you care about is average.
Put system defrag in scheduled tasks to run everyday.
5. Probably the most important, nothing can be running during test, no firewalls, no virus stuff, no ICQ, no AIM (some of you may have to go into BIOS to disable virus scanner, nothing running except Net Stat live
Scheduled tasks will run disk defrag, 98 & SE in Taskbar, WIN ME in control panel
The people who want speed surfing or doing whatever must close all other programs.

Or if you wish you may go to www.testmyspeed.com and do one of the online tests, these vary to much for me but you may like them. Another one is at www.dslreports.com/tools
