Rogers@Home cable: 11.2KB/Sec ???

NICK · Post by **NICK** » Wed Feb 20, 2002 9:14 pm

Yes thats the DL speed Im getting. PATHETIC!
Ive got the XP patch. Maybe something to do with traffic, or bad DL server

I usually get pretty good load times, my highest DL speed is around 100KB/Sec

help! getting ripped off here!

Is Optimizer installed, @home is no more, they were bought, no download CAP of 3.0 now, it's 1.5, slower, do this if you do not have Optimizer:

Make sure you get newest version Download SG Optimizer to your desktop, select connection type at top, select optimal settings at bottom, click on apply changes at very bottom, Select adapter you are using and REBOOT
If you wish to enter custom TCP recieve window select custom settings at bottom, enter what you wish, click on apply changes at bottom and REBOOT.
If using Cablenuts adjuster too, you must first bring up adjuster, click on delete Cablenut Tweaks at bottom and reboot, then download and install optimizer.

Optimizer in my signature

You had better call your ISP as that @Home E-mail lasts till the 28th of this month, then no mail for you

i havent rebooted after downloading the patch because im in the middle of a big download (130MB max payne demo)

do these mean anything?

TCP options string = 020405b401010402

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) = 17520
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 0 bits
Unscaled Receive Window = 17520
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: 700.8 kbps (87.6 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 280.32 kbps (35.04 KBytes/s) @ 500ms
Consider increasing your RWIN value to optimize TCP/IP for broadband.

MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON

Time to live left = 114 hops
TTL value is ok.

Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF

Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = ON

IP type of service field (RFC1349)= 00000000

and the speed test

The patch won't work unless you rebooted...

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Feb 20, 2002 9:37 pm

You have Cablenut installed, Optimizer will not take effect untill you reboot, so

nope i dont think i have cablenut installed but i did have that specific @home speed patch

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Feb 20, 2002 11:00 pm

OK, Reboot when you can

Try Tcp Recieve windows of 554800, 578160, 601520, 642400, 730000 or 74752:)

HalfLifer · Post by **HalfLifer** » Thu Feb 21, 2002 5:35 pm

Rogers is canadian, 3mbps/384kbps

NICK · Post by **NICK** » Thu Feb 21, 2002 8:04 pm

is bigger better for the tcp recieve?

should i tweak:
black hole detect?
time to live?
max connections per server/per 1.0 server?
packet size?

thanks

Don't mess with anything in Optimizer but Tcp Recieve Window, apply changes each time you change number and reboot, select maybe a different test site close to you from: hare

NICK · Post by **NICK** » Fri Feb 22, 2002 8:10 pm

Ive put the TCP recieve to 747520 and its not that much faster.

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Sat Feb 23, 2002 12:13 am

You can only go as fast as your ISP lets you, just select the fastest number for you
