hello
I just installed windows 2000 pro and was wondering if someone could inform me how to tweak my DSL connection.
I'm running
Win 2000 pro
500mHz Celeron
256mb ram
DSL PPPOE connectino with the connection manager installed
MTU = 1454
MTU is not fully optimized for broadband. Consider increasing your MTU to 1500 for better throughput.
MSS = 1414
Maximum useful data in each packet = 1414, 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) = 16968
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 0 bits
Unscaled Receive Window = 16968
RWIN is a multiple of MSS
Other values for RWIN that might work well with your current MTU/MSS:
520352 (MSS x 46 * scale factor of 8)
260176 (MSS x 46 * scale factor of 4)
130088 (MSS x 46 * scale factor of 2)
65044 (MSS x 46)
bandwidth * delay product:
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 678.72 kbps (84.84 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 271.488 kbps (33.936 KBytes/s) @ 500ms
Consider increasing your RWIN value to optimize TCP/IP for broadband.
MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON
Time to live left = 111 hops
TTL value is ok.
Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF
Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = ON
IP type of service field (RFC1349)= 00000000

Are you on PPPoE:
PPPoE you have to log on to the internet with username and password. (Not log on to Windows)
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. You have to log on with name and password everytime you access net with PPPoE.

RE:Are you on PPPoE:
yes.. I am 100%..
I did as told but could not find TunnelMode in the reg of my windows 2000 pro. I've also just installed the sguide_tweak_2k_pppoe.zip patch and this is what I"m getting now.
pls give me further advice..
