Thanks for the prompt reply! Very much appreciated.

Ah so I can't tweak that so at least it would reach 0.6 or something nearer to the the DL average?

My advertised speed is 1.2Mbps.

I've read this page: http://www.speedguide.net/tcpoptimizer.php

and have already done the following:

- Choose your maximum Connection Speed from the slider bar (the maximum available bandwidth, in kilobits per second)
- Choose your Network Interface, or check to Modify All Network Adapters ...

That's good to hear but they do advertise it to be 384: http://www.smart.com.ph/SmartBro/Products/

Though yes, if you look up several posts back in this thread, I did use that RWIN value and got 270-383Kbps speeds.

I will try this now...

I'm now averaging around the mid 200's.

A bit better but still a no-go:

This is 5Kbps more than my subscribed speed! Thanks Trogers!

If this goes down again? What could the ...

Is there a possibility I have been infected with bandwidth gobbling spyware? I checked yesterday under safe mode though. I ran the whole gamut:

AVG Free
Ad-aware 2007
A-squared Free
Spybot Search and Destroy

I then restarted then checked with Microsoft's and Sophos' Rootkit revealers. I even have ...

Using a proxy is legal but can be dangerous as the owner of the proxy server has access to all your entries typed from your keyboard - passwords, etc.

Goodgods! I'd rather have the slow speed than a breach in my security. Thanks for the warning Trogers! I have reverted back to my previous ...

Question: My friend got an information re our ISP. It involves changing settings in Firefox's TOOLS > OPTIONS > ADVANCED > NETWORK > SETTINGS. There we made changes to the MANUAL PROXY CONFIGURATION.

This was my settings before:

Thanks!

I am very satisfied with your freeware I put it in my blog. Here is an article about the TCP Optimizer there. It's just a PR two blogsite but hey, anything to spread awareness of this great freeware.

Thanks but how do you do that? May you show me where to set/know that those settings?

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Hardware affects latency?! Latency is ping right?

If that is so, maybe I can offset my wifi's ping EVEN BY A BIT by buying better hardware. I am subscribing to a wifi ISP: http://www.smart.com.ph/SmartBro/ I use a P4VP-MX mobo with an integrated 10/100Mbps LAN. (I have 0 knowledge ...

I downloaded it to my desktop. If it sits there, everytime I boot up, it will eat up a miniscule amount of RAM (not storage). If I store it somewhere else and not bother with it, it will eat up only hard drive space (storage).

Correct me if I am wrong, but I noticed wiping my desktop of clutter ...

Ok. I'll transfer it to My Documents then. It's eating up tiny bits of RAM if it sits in the desktop.

Superb explanation; will read it thoroughly tomorrow. It's 12am and I'm sleepy. One last thing to wrap up this thread:

The TCP Optimizer makes changes to the registry right? If so there is no more need for the exe to be in my system. I'll delete it for now and see if it leaves any traces in the ...

Yep, this proves it:



Higher RWIN is better for my wifi connection. Thanks Trogers!

I'll put this up in my blogsite and recommend it to my friends.

Yes, sadly.

I'll revert to your mentioned value. I read the article you gave. I think gaming data are very small so I think I won't be subject much to the penalties of a high RWIN value.

Using higher recommended numbers and leaving alone the other fields:

Ok, I will.

I noticed you put in a lower number. What is wrong with the recommended higher ones?

No edit button? Sorry for the double post.

I applied the recommended number:

That is terrible. I suspect it's because of this:

Okay! That is good to hear!

Though I read here some of the users had problems undoing the changes. What went wrong? Their cases make me apprehensive. (but I WILL use your product! =))

Yes, sadly, that is true.

Your product alters registy settings right? So if I save a copy of my registry with ERUNT or the program's built in "registry-saver", theoretically, I could undo the changes by loading the saved file I will have made if anything goes wrong right?

"Wireless itself is worse than a hardline connection for ping." >>>> this is good to hear; means I can still do something about my horrendous ping.

Thanks for the reply!

Hello.

Does TCP Optimizer work on wifi?

Here is the site of my provider: http://www.smart.com.ph/SMART/Services/SmartBro/FAQ/#a2


It says there: "which is up to 7x faster than dial-up, or 384kbps" is this in kilobits per second or kilobytes per second?
