Are My Settings OK?

[TomMonger]

I did the tweak test and these are my results. Are these considered good? And should I change anything?

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)

bandwidth * delay product:
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 10278.4 kbps (1284.8 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 4111.36 kbps (513.92 KBytes/s) @ 500ms

MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON

Time to live left = 50 hops
TTL value is ok.

Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF

Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = ON

IP type of service field (RFC1349)= 00000000

Thanks!

How are your speeds and what is your computers specs! They look good but are you getting the performance you want? You might want to try the tweak forum for more help.

Thanks...

My system is a P233 laptop with Win 98 (first edition).

I'm getting anywhere from 100 kbps to 750 kbps on the web and 2.4 meg when I download from my local Adelphia office server (tucows.vertonet.com).
