Can you help me tweak this? #2

Brent- Sorry about that. I understand your concern about Warez and stuff, I will be a good boy from now on ;) .

One thing, when I tried to change my RWIN to 513920 via Cablenut, and I ran the Analizer, it shows the following...

TCP options string = 020405b401010402010303000101080a0061e15700000000

MTU = 1500
MTU is fully optimized for broadband.

MSS = 1460
Maximum useful data in each packet = 1448, which is less than MSS because of Timestamps, or other TCP/IP options used.

Default Receive Window (RWIN) = 8760
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 0 bits
Unscaled Receive Window = 8760
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: 350.4 kbps (43.8 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 140.16 kbps (17.52 KBytes/s) @ 500ms
Consider increasing your RWIN value to optimize TCP/IP for broadband.

MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON

Time to live left = 53 hops
TTL value is ok.

Timestamps (RFC1323) = ON
Note: Timestamps add 12 bytes to the TCP header of each packet, reducing the space available for useful data.

Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = ON

IP type of service field (RFC1349)= 00000000



IT changes back to 8760. Any idea how to fix that?

XBit - Didn't install their software, however, I am on Netsetter's Proxy, is that the problem?

Halflifer- I believe it's Windows 98 SE.

Netsetter :eek: , that only slows you down. Do not use any type of proxy server, They only slow you down. Remove all of the @home software from you computer. They only thing you need from @home is the computer name and any hardware they gave you.

Lobo - Tried that, thanks!

xbit - Sorry, 100% boost is too tempting to not try it ;) . Got it off, though, and now it's back to the original one. Thanks!
