Maybe try these, Priority in WIN 2000 is 2, XP is 0
NIC Buffer tweaks, with help from Eugene4Pres:

InitialLargerBufferCount- 200
InitialMediumBufferCount- 450
InitalSmallBufferCount- 960
LargerBufferSize- 262144
MediumBufferSize- 577280
PriorityBoost- 0
SmallBufferSize- 64240
TransmitWorker-32

Also to spend money that is well spent get this, I use it and it works fine, alot better than putting coffee on, finding round thing (Disk) and late nights, it's called Go Back and you can read about it here

Before I attempt to install these, can you tell me what each setting there is for and why those numbers apply?

You had posted them in a reply to a thread a couple of days ago so I put the settings in my XP machine. I haven't noticed much difference but then again they haven't caused any problems either.

Go Back is a very good program but for system backups I just use Norton Ghost and an old 8 gig hd. If anything happens I can have my system up and running again in less than 5 minutes.

Thank you Miss Cleo.

I could archive better speeds with my own version, simular to Lobo's, than my old setup.

You need to download cablenut and enter them into the cablenut adjuster.

will that work with the beta tweak prog. i got from here ?

[edit] and work with XP ??

HenryHand1 · Post by **HenryHand1** » Tue Jan 01, 2002 8:44 pm

It will work with XP, and it won't conflict with SG Optimizer beta, I don't think.

It is possible, however, that cablenut will overwrite your SG Optimizer settings if you open up cablenut analyzer after applying tweaks through SG Optimizer.

ok does it have a default setting , like does it return to windows defaults ??

or should I just write down what ever I change for future referance ?

thanks

HenryHand1 · Post by **HenryHand1** » Tue Jan 01, 2002 8:49 pm

Yep. You don't even have to back it up. You can just press a button within the program and all the tweaks you have made with cablenut will be removed.

I added onto my original post BTW ^_^

how come it goes to install then just sits there for like 3 minutes and never finishes installing ?

task manager does NOT say it is not responding ?

how long should this take ?

will try and redownload it and try it again.

Lobo, what does "Go Back" software have to do with Broadband. I like cows that eat grass, but I don't post links about it., I try to keep subject content relevant to the forum.

Hey Lobo Thanks Worked Great!!
Happy New Year to You and Yours

HalfLifer · Post by **HalfLifer** » Tue Jan 01, 2002 10:53 pm

The PCPItstop test is inaccurate and his 12Mbps speed is a JOKE. Cable's maximum throughput is 10Mbps, and with overhead, 8-9Mbps. Lobo doesnt get near that.

Lee_Nover · Post by **Lee_Nover** » Wed Jan 02, 2002 11:55 am

HalfLifer, we all know that Lobo's reports inaccurate findings on his supposedly oc38 connection to his house (how else can you get speeds like that), but what I find interesting is that he needs to validate his existence by repeatedly falsifying his speeds and reporting them to the rest of the forum. Lobos, at least falsify speed reports that are somewhat attainable by a cable connection. Here let me help you out.

Thanx, it might not be accurate but thats what it said, thats ma story and I'm sticking to it, Halflife, those cats covering you up again

HalfLifer · Post by **HalfLifer** » Wed Jan 02, 2002 2:14 pm

huh lobo? I can hardly understand your message.

The PCPitstop test is highly innaccurate.

Lee_Nover · Post by **Lee_Nover** » Wed Jan 02, 2002 4:04 pm

Lobos, ever heard of speed bursts. I have had transfer rates of over 1.8 megaBYTES in the first 1000 Kilobytes, and then, cable governor kicks in and starts to cap it. I cannot believe you are telling people on this board your download transfer rates on a 1 meg file. Think Lobos.

HalfLifer · Post by **HalfLifer** » Wed Jan 02, 2002 4:06 pm

These tweaks use buffers and make that speedtest inaccurate.

And yes lobo, thats 12.1 Mbps, and its inaccurate.

12103 Kilobits = 12.103 Megabits, Lobos. PCPITSTOP reports in kilobits, which you had said 12103, HalfLifer just translated it to Megabits. No Comprendez, too mucha eggnoggy fer you.:2cool:
