I just completed reformattin my hard drive and I need some help. I have the automaatic tweaks downloaded but I want to manually tweak my settings. I have the optimizer downloaded and Cablenut as well but am in the need of actual settings t help me on my way. Please be very detailed with your answers. I want even settings that will help me load web pages faster.

THANKS!!!

Try the following in Cablenut:

DefaultReceiveWindow = 256000
DefaultSendWindow = 49152
DisableAddressSharing = 1
InitialLargeBufferCount = 100
InitialMediumBufferCount = 240
InitialSmallBufferCount = 320
LargeBufferSize = 81920
MaxFastTransmit = 64000
MediumBufferSize = 15040
PriorityBoost = 0
SmallBufferSize = 1280
TransmitWorker = 32
FastSendDatagramThreshold = 4096
EnableFastRouteLookup = 1
EnablePMTUDiscovery = 1
IgnorePushBitsOnReceive = 0
GlobalMaxTcpWindowSize = 64240
MaxFreeTcbs = 8000
MaxHashTableSize = 16384
MaxNormLookupMemory = 5000000
SackOpts = 1
SynAttackProtect = 1
Tcp1323Opts = 0
TcpLogLevel = 1
TcpMaxDupAcks = 2
TcpMaxHalfOpen = 100
TcpMaxHalfRetried = 80
TcpRecvSegmentSize = 1460
TcpSendSegmentSize = 1460
TcpTimedWaitDelay = 30
TcpUseRFC1122UrgentPointer = 0
TcpWindowSize = 64240
MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server = 20
MaxConnectionsPerServer = 10
DefaultTTL = 64
DisableUserTOSSetting = 0
TcpMaxDataRetransmissions = 6
DefaultTOSValue = 92

TCP options string = 020405b40103030201010402

MTU = 1500
MTU is fully optimized for broadband.

MSS = 1460
Maximum useful data in each packet = 1460, which equals 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

Here are my new settings..........what does the (Unscaled Receive Window = 64240 ) mean??? And can I chnge this and will it improve speed as well? Plus you gave me a few things to change in registry before..........what are those settings.....it was something of the nature of changing something to all 1s.

2002-09-02 01:44:57 EST: 1972 / 336
Your download speed : 1972511 bps, or 1972 kbps.
A 240.7 KB/sec transfer rate.
Your upload speed : 336757 bps, or 336 kbps.
Seems like broadband .. above the 1mbit barrier!

Also this is what I tested at..........and this is without using Cablenut(used optimizer).....should I leave things along or will Cablenut help me more?

Why do you ask for advice when you aren't going to try it?

By the time you responded I had already tried this Mr. Steele. But I was curious as to that particular setting.....you know I always welcome your abundance of knowledge!!!! So please continue.............................THANKS

Try the system.ini tweak. It helped me get a significant speed boost.
