TCP options string = 0204052a01010402
MTU = 1362
MTU is not fully optimized for broadband. Consider increasing your MTU to 1500 for
better throughput.
MSS = 1322
Maximum useful data in each packet = 1322, which is equal to MSS.
MSS is not fully optimized for broadband (although it might work well for slower
connections). Consider increasing your MTU value.
Default Receive Window (RWIN) = 65535
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 0 bits
Unscaled Receive Window = 65535
Note: Under Windows 9x, if you have RWIN set to any other value, and the
Analyzer reports 65535 you might need to install the MS Vtcp386 fix.
For optimum performance, consider changing RWIN to a multiple of MSS.
Other values for RWIN that might work well with your current MTU/MSS:
507648 (MSS x 48 * scale factor of 8)
253824 (MSS x 48 * scale factor of 4)
126912 (MSS x 48 * scale factor of 2)
63456 (MSS x 48)
bandwidth * delay product:
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 2621.4 kbps (327.675 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 1048.56 kbps (131.07 KBytes/s) @ 500ms
MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON
Time to live left = 50 hops
TTL value is ok.
Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF
Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = ON
IP type of service field (RFC1349)= 00000000

Lobo, please tell me what I have to do to get better download and upload speeds. My connection speed is inconsistent and it can go as low as 46Kbps. High is only 400kbps. Please provide me details on how to tweak my registry. (Note: I have so many folders with MAXMTU, which are set to 1500)

Thanks buddy.

dannjr,

I am not sure if it is a PPPoE connection, but when I configured my connection to MindSpring DSL, I selected the PPPoE. I am running on Windows 98 and connect to Mindspring DSL using the Earthlink Toolbar.

Thanks in advance.
