Any other tweaks?

Post by bixus »

TCP options string = 020405b40103030001010402

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) = 51100
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 0 bits
Unscaled Receive Window = 51100
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: 2044 kbps (255.5 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 817.6 kbps (102.2 KBytes/s) @ 500ms

MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON

Time to live left = 57 hops
TTL value is ok.

Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF

Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = ON

IP type of service field (RFC1349)= 00000000

This is on a Linksys BEFW11S4 router and running win 98.

If you're live in the US take this speed test and choose the location that is closest to you
http://www.speakeasy.net/main.php?page=sup_pops

If from outside the US you can find one here: http://www.testmyspeed.com/speedtests/international.htm

If you getting over 85% of your service cap then you're all set.

Test running..........
** Speed 659(down)/97(up) kbps **
(At least 13 times faster than a 56k modem)
Finish.

Advertised speed is 1.5Mbps/128Kbps.

bixus- i would set your RWIN higher because only getting 660 down with 1.5mb dsl is way too slow. try setting it to soemthing liek 256960

Try Tcp Recieve Window of 64240

Please call ISP: If that does not work, they will tell you everything is fine, make them come to your house for service call, have fun


Press 1 if you are broke
Press 2 if you forgot why you called
Press 3 if this is a speed issue, everything looks good
Press 4 if you want to listen to sound track of Gone with the Wind
Press 5 if you are having problems that we can't solve
Press 6 if that dog won't hunt
Press 7 if your tired of waiting, were tired of you waiting
Press 8 if you want us to hang up on you
Press 9 if your not sure you dialed right number
If you want to speak to personnal rep you are 415 calls away, approx wait time is 2 days 25 min, thank you :) :)

I just have those two installed. I am not exactly sure how I would check my duplex. I went to that site in your sig but am not sure what I should do.

Ok, I figured out how to change the duplex but I am not sure exactly what I should set it to. It is currently on Auto mode. I don't use PPPoE DSL either.
