hi guys i finally able to tweak my connection to its peak.. and getting the advert speed in speedtest.. also i follow this gaming tweak posted here.. and i see a whole difference.. pings low.. and game is smooth..

now i have a problem.. after those tweaking that i made.. it seems that in exchange of that smooth performance in gaming im getting a horrible DL speed.. i have a 1.2mbps+ supposed im getting a 140KB/sec when downloading but instead im only getting 20-80KB/sec.. also my buffering in youtube, watchmovies, etc.. is like WTF.. very slow..

can u guys help me figure this out and fix this.. or does it conflict w/ the tweak that i made.. any1 can explain it.. tnx..

Gaming Tweak - Disable Nagle's algorithm

The tweak below allows for tweaking or disabling Nagle's alogrithm. Disabling "nagling" allows for very small packets to be transferred immediately without delay. Note that is only recommended for some games, and it may have negative impact on file transfers/throughput. The dafault state (Nagling enabled) improves performance by allowing several small packets to be combined together into a single, larger packet for more efficient transmission. While this improves overall performance and reduces TCP/IP overhead, it may briefly delay transmission of smaller packets. Keep in mind that disabling Nagle's algorithm may have some negative effect on file transfers, and can only help reduce delay in some games.
