If you have bought your comp and installed WIN XP SP2 within 1995, it is most likely RC2 version. Please note that increasing your TCPIP.SYS setting from 10 to 50 will not affect your download speed. What it does is to assist faster loading of web pages provided you have sufficient bandwidth. You will need to tweak your browser to find the optimum setting. IE and NetCaptor do not have tweak options. FireFox with FasterFox extension and Opera have this option. Cablenut has settings which you can use to limit the number of connections. Recommended setting in Cablenut is MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server - 20 MaxConnectionsPerServer - 10 If you have larger bandwidth (3 Mbps and more) you can set both values to 32.

Good morning, Here is the revised ccs file. Make that try for 50 kB/s upload.

Good luck. I have to go to bed now. It's past 1.30 am here

You can make a try for 50kB/s. In my 255552-63888MTU1492 file, you can change the value of DefaultSendWindow to 127776

You said your advertised speed is 5 Mbps down and 256 kbps up. I am wondering why you are able to exceed your subscribed speed...LOL

This ccs file is for MTU 1492

Try this ccs file and let me know whether it helped.

This links may help you to understand better why international broadband performances when measured in USA varies widely: http://www.testmy.net/forum/index.php?topic=11307.0 http://forums.speedguide.net/showthread.php?t=192650

Hi, There are a few things you have to bear in mind: Speed tests performed at your ISP's site will give much better results than tests done on sites in USA. You can see this from your tracing route test. Latency within your country is less than 100 ms. When the signal got into the international gateway, latency went above 300ms and through the hops in USA, latency went into many hundreds. You cannot tweak latency from your comp. What we can try to achieve here is to tweak your comp to its max efficiency. To gauge performance before and after tweaking, it would be better if you can carry out a speed test on you ISP's site and post your results in this forum.

Hi, I am not an expert with hardware such as modem and router but I do believe that before spending money to replace them, we should eliminate other possible sources of the problem. Here is a link that may be of help to you: https://www.speedguide.net/read_articles.php?id=117

Hi huncks41, How is the weather in the Phillipines? I suggest you post your topic in a new post so that we can address your request specifically. Also, please carry out this test and post your results too (but censor out your IP address). https://www.speedguide.net/analyzer.php

Please carry out this ping test on your comp. click Start/Run and type 'command' and click ok. At c: prompt of the Dos Box, type and enter the following ping www.yahoo.com -f -l 1472 If you get message "Packets need to be fragmented" Then your MTU is not 1500 If you do not get this message, then your MTU is at 1500 but your ISP has a transparent server that cause filtered signals to be MTU 1490.

Please take note: This patcher is for OS with Windows XP SP2 (from RC2 upwards) or Windows 2003 Server SP1 beta only!!! see this link: http://www.lvllord.de/?lang=en&url=tools#4226patch

You can run the patcher again and reset value back to 10

Sounds like you have located your router and modem near to your TV. The TV set emits more electrical noise than router and modem combined. Try to relocate the modem and router 3-4 feet away from your TV set and keep them 5-6 inches apart.

Try the recommendations of this link to test your download speed: http://www.askmarvin.ca/testing.html

Have you readjust your ccs file for the following: MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server - 20 MaxConnectionsPerServer - 10 These are recommended values but I have set both of my values to 32 as I am using Firefox v1.5 with Fasterfox extension.

Try this ccs file. Remember to ensure electrical noise between your modem and router is not slowing down your speed by keeping them a distance apart.

Tweak settings have to match your comp settings. We need to know your present RWIN and MTU values. Please see your earlier post http://www.testmy.net/forum/index.php?topic=11334.0

Please carry out the following tests and post your results: http://www.testmy.net/ https://www.speedguide.net/analyzer.php Also, please ensure your modem and router are not placed near to each other. https://www.speedguide.net/read_articles.php?id=1885

Sounds like your comp's concurrent connection-limit is still set at a default value of 10. You can download and install this patch to change it to 50. http://www.lvllord.de/?lang=en&url=downloads&PHPSESSID=7e994ea500f51c7d6d94eb4e3f8888c6
