You can only go as fast as your provider will allow you.

No matter how high you set your Rwin, it will only be used as high as the other end is willing to go. Ex. If you have your Rwin set to 100 and the destination has an Rwin of 50, you will use an Rwin of 50 to transmit/receive packets.

One other thing to keep in mind, the higher Rwin you use the greater chance you have at really slowing your connection. If you actually used an Rwin of 1000000 and even a single 64 byte packet was corrupt of lost, the sender would have to retransmit all 1000000 bytes....and you can guess what that would do to your dl speed
