TCP options string = 020405b40103030201010402

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) = 256960
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 2 bits
Unscaled Receive Window = 64240
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)
128480 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 2)
64240 (MSS x 44)

What OS and system specs please

eBean · Post by **eBean** » Wed May 02, 2001 1:03 am

Windows 98 Second Edition

P3 800, 256mb ram, GeForce 2 GTS 64mb, 20 gig

thats about it, all of a sudden, it got a slower, is it because more people in my town are getting cable?

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed May 02, 2001 8:51 am

Set RWIN to 513920, 522680 or 524176, do you have Cablenut adjuster

I got another damn problem, okay, my cable modem has 4 green lights and 1 orange one for actvity, seems, like every night or some times in the day, it just suddenly goes blank, the green lights go off, and it restarts over, and it takes a while before it works again. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON, is it the damn charter company? or is it just me?

i got another question, seems like you always ask for their machine type, just woundering why? what happens if someone has a slow ass computer and they set it to like a 1.2 mhz, what will happen, computer blow up?

eBean · Post by **eBean** » Thu May 03, 2001 2:09 am

sorry to bother again, i did the adjuster, is that all i can do, i see a lot of other ooptions in the adjuster, is there anyother stuff i can tweak to make it go super fast?

If strange things are happening with the modem lights, I'd advise getting a hold of your ISP and get some action taken of some sort. Sounds to me like you have a cable connection problem. (line noise,weak signal, etc) Have them come out and test your line!

You may even have a bad modem.
Also, yes, the more people added to your node will decrease your bandwidth, resulting in slower speeds. How bad is your speed anyway?

any way to make it faster?

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Fri May 04, 2001 7:40 am

Test looks fine, sure you can go faster, read my friend, I'm not going to tell you all the secrets but don't forget 386Enh System Configuration Utility, I'm on XP, we don't have one of them, but you do

rainallday · Post by **rainallday** » Fri May 04, 2001 4:15 pm

how about just 1/2 or 2/3 of the tweaking secrets lobo?????........

I'm on WIN XP but you might need some 386Enh system tweaks, type it in search box, I can't remember that old stuff

Hey guys

i need help again, okay my download is alright, but my upload is so damn slow, im only uploading at an average of 14kbps, any way to make it go faster?

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Mon May 07, 2001 9:25 pm

Why yes, call friendly people at cable company for they hold the keys

eBean · Post by **eBean** » Tue May 08, 2001 12:45 am

Lobo, what version are you using of WIN XP, beta, an are there bugs, can i play games on it or is it not ready yet?

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Tue May 08, 2001 8:50 am

I am using Beta 2 version of XP, lastest one, it is faster, no bugs yet, don't know about games as I don't have time for them, all I can say is get ready cause it is very, very different and I don't mean just in appearance, eBean turn on your E-mail so I can send you something

eBean · Post by **eBean** » Tue May 08, 2001 9:20 pm

okay lobo, send away, hahhaah

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Tue May 08, 2001 9:31 pm

It's thar

eBean · Post by **eBean** » Wed May 09, 2001 1:40 am

hey lobo, was woundering, what does that do, that website, will it help me make my cable go faster, or is it just tweaking?

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed May 09, 2001 6:06 am

Faster, if you do it right, it neato

EvilAjax · Post by **EvilAjax** » Wed May 09, 2001 6:15 am

Hey Lobo, how's Xp workin for ya? I reinstalled it again, into a different partition though. It's working much better than last time. Boot is still an issue though. Have you gotten around any problems? If so, how? I'm still trying to get my MTU above 1400

This thing is complicated bro. I used cablenut's adjuster, and I'm going a bit faster. But MTU still wont change

Right now I'm on Windows 98SE.. had to let Xp rest a little while

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed May 09, 2001 8:43 am

Cablenuts adjuster but the old tweaks are not working, I'm in process of reformatting cause I tried old tweaks, don't do anything to it, unless you know for sure, I have another program from www.ontract.com called Fix-it Utilities that lets me auto logon so no bootup problems and no password

EvilAjax · Post by **EvilAjax** » Wed May 09, 2001 9:01 am

How much quicker is log on?

EvilAjax · Post by **EvilAjax** » Wed May 09, 2001 9:03 am

site no workie

(ontract)
How much time is shaved off during boot?
