They don't make much sense but they blaze, I've tried all the settings from everybody and some other's of my own, and nothing compares to the speeds i get with the Houdini settings.

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Thu Sep 05, 2002 7:58 am

It was a joke, I believe above test is for 56K, although you can still get MTU. RWIN Timestamps and so on info, retransmitts is not accurate

WOW, these settings work great for me. No packet loss. Speeds go from 59kb/s to 62kb/s. Thats 97% of my caps!

Mohan, there is only one way to see if that great grandy RWIN will work, Download something and see if you get all of the download, see if what you download works

hotmail accounts have a limit of 1mb size files so no help there.

Hmm, any large programs from the net?

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Thu Sep 05, 2002 10:15 am

Any program

Also program is smaller

Well wgat did we learn from this thread, Bad Math = Good

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Thu Sep 05, 2002 11:42 am

I changed BufferMultiplier to 6 Decimal, faster

Cool, I give that a shot, I am running mine at 4.

BufferMultiplier=6 and the same settings. not bad for mid day tests.

3.8 megabits per second

Run the test again Discuss in the forum
Details

Your raw speed was 3757513.27 bits per second which is the same as:

Communications

3.8 megabits per second
How communication devices are rated. Kilo means 1,000 and mega means 1,000,000. Examples include 56k modem and 10Mbit Ethernet

Storage

458.7 kilobytes per second
The way data is measured on your hard drive and how file sharing and FTP programs measure transfer speeds. Kilo is 1,024 and mega is 1,048,576.

1MB file download

2.2 seconds
The time it would take you to download a 1 megabyte file at this speed.

So you say you used bad math, where did you screw it up, and also it'd be nice if some of you smart people could tell me how I could transfer the settings that this man here messed up but seemed to have struck gold with, how can I transfer those settings into cablenut (or straight into the registry) for a windows 98 computer. Thank you in advance

How bout translating some of these settings for people with diff MTU's?

like 1480 on DSL with WinXP

that way other people can join the fun... I've always hated logic in math ... calculus is a pain in the butt

Somebody in this thread tried these for PPPoe DSL in and worked great, This is with XP, as far as implicating them in Win 98, not sure. Doubt they would do any good at all.

As far as the math error, When i was figuring caps i used kb insteed of mb in the equation, and pulled that huge RWIN, after that start changing some of the other settings to work with that RWIN.

goldeneye_bill · Post by **goldeneye_bill** » Thu Sep 05, 2002 10:33 pm

Ummm, figuring caps? I didn't know you had to figure those, I just thought the ISP told you what they were.

Ka|ibur · Post by **Ka|ibur** » Thu Sep 05, 2002 10:36 pm

no no he means figuring out your Rwin according to your specified caps

SICMF · Post by **SICMF** » Thu Sep 05, 2002 10:39 pm

Yep, what i did was multiplied my caps 3500x1024, and 384x1024

and got 3584000 and 393216

Just didn't move the decimal and found the best RWIN i have tried.

goldeneye_bill · Post by **goldeneye_bill** » Thu Sep 05, 2002 10:39 pm

ok, so explain to me the mess up he did, if it worked for him and his caps, maybe it would work for me and my caps. I know he said something about kb's and mb's but heck all I know is the actual numbers, not the unit size attatched to the numbres.

goldeneye_bill · Post by **goldeneye_bill** » Thu Sep 05, 2002 10:40 pm

never mind that last post I did

goldeneye_bill · Post by **goldeneye_bill** » Thu Sep 05, 2002 10:41 pm

Well, in Mr. Steele's my tips thread, isn't that way of figuring your RWIN's how he says to do it, Capsx1024 ?????

Ka|ibur · Post by **Ka|ibur** » Sun Sep 22, 2002 9:28 pm

Are there any updates on this issue?

Just wonderin' cuz I've been away for abit and wanna know if anyone's arrived at new settings from this matter...
btw, while I'm at it ..
to Lobo: what's your cablenut settings rite now ?

did info in the thread improve speed?

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Mon Sep 23, 2002 10:54 am

I am using Tcp Recieve Window 51100, BufferMultiplier set to 7168 Hex:

i just could not understand whats your tweak mr:lobo
i would like you to make it clear that i can have it done on my machine .please
if you don't mind

polishmafia4u · Post by **polishmafia4u** » Sun May 11, 2003 12:10 pm

just bringing this one back from the dead. wondering if it is still working good? cause im trying these settigns and tehy seems to work damn well. havent tried to use the buffer multiplyer cause i done know what 5 decimal means. anyways, anyone else try these?

Melvin · Post by **Melvin** » Mon May 12, 2003 6:05 pm

I tried these settings and for me they did not work at all. In fact the settings gave me a 10% reduction in DL speed. But I am willing to try...Who knows I might be able to break my caps by more than 1%.......but I doubt it!!!!!
