Well, if you can't reach 90% of your ISP's advertised speed you might have a problem.
Luckily that problem can be fixed in most cases by tweaking your windows registry.
There are a lot of tweak programs out on the internet. Unfortunately, not all of them do the job right.
When you need help with tweaking, add these things in your post.
1. Windows XP
2. Verizon DSL, Up to 3 Mbps/768Kbps
3. TCP properties for IP = XXXXXXXX ()
Browser/OS = Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1. Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5
Notes: Read the Analyzer FAQ if the above is not your IP address.
TCP options string = 020405a00103030101010402
MTU = 1480
MTU is optimized for Windows XP PPoE DSL broadband. If not, consider raising MTU to 1500 for optimal throughput.
MSS = 1440
MSS is optimized for Windows XP PPPoE DSL broadband. If not, consider raising your MTU value.
Default Receive Window (RWIN) = 69120
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 1 bits (scale factor of 2)
Unscaled Receive Window = 34560
RWIN is not fully optimized (even though it is a comparatively large number). The unscaled RWIN value is lower than it should be. Also, RWIN being close to and above 65535 does not justify the header overhead of enabling TCP Options. You might want to use one of the recommended RWIN values below.
RWIN is a multiple of MSS
Other values for RWIN that might work well with your current MTU/MSS:
506880 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of
253440 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 4)
126720 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 2)
63360 (MSS x 44)
bandwidth * delay product (Note this is not a speed test):
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 2764.8 kbps (345.6 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 1105.92 kbps (138.24 KBytes/s) @ 500ms
MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON
Time to live left = 121 hops
TTL value is ok.
Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF
Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = ON
IP type of service field (RFC1349) = 00000000 (0)
4.
Your connection is: 354 Kbps (about 0.4 Mbps)
You downloaded at: 43 kB/s
Your TRuSPEED: ^info^ 379 Kbps :: 46 kB/s (7% overhead factored)
Bottom Line: You are running: 6 times faster than 56K and can download 1 megabyte in 23.81 second(s)
Diagnosis: May need help : running at only 7.52 % of your hosts average (verizon.net)
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

okay, I did everything on the guide
what should I do?
thanks in advanced
