SpeedGuide.net TCP/IP Analyzer

Browser/OS = Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; AOL 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727)

Notes: Read the Analyzer FAQ if the above is not your IP address.

TCP options string = 020405b40101040201030302

MTU = 1500

MTU is fully optimized for broadband.

MSS = 1460

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

Default TCP Receive Window (RWIN) = 5840

RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 2 bits (scale factor of 4)

Unscaled TCP Receive Window = 1460

RWIN seems to be set to a very small number. If you're on a broadband connection, consider using a larger value.

RWIN is a multiple of MSS

Other RWIN values 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 (Note this is not a speed test):

Your TCP Window limits you to: 233.6 kbps (29.2 KBytes/s) @ 200ms

Your TCP Window limits you to: 93.44 kbps (11.68 KBytes/s) @ 500ms

Consider increasing your RWIN value to optimize TCP/IP for broadband.

MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON

Time to live left = 56 hops

TTL value is ok.

Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF

Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = ON

IP type of service field (RFC1349) = 00000000 (0)

33,741,186 connections tested since 03.10.2001.

Analyzer version: 1.08 - last updated 02.28.2006.

Thanks. Yes I'm a big believer in scanning the crap out of my computer. It's very clean and very slow.

I'm clean and have both Cable Nut and TCP Optimizer DL'd

What can I do with them?

Are you running Zone Alarm or an equivalent?  Are you running Norton Internet Security or an equivalent.  Programs like those can choke up your internet connection.

I also noticed the aol.com host.  Are you testing through the AOL software?  If so, you might want to just try IE or FireFox, as AOL's proxy servers can also choke out your connection.  BTW, if you are running the AOL software, please tell me you arent running the free McAffee that comes with it, if so, that could also be your problem.

No Zone Alarm, Norton or McAfee. And as far as AOL goes ... the test here says the AOL average is 7381 kbps.

I would be VERY VERY happy with a Tenth 1/10 of that.

Well, seems I've tried about everything I've read here with little improvment.

Love to know what your CableNut / Registry parameters are?  :shocked:

I hate to keep beating a dead horse here, but have you tried it with the AOL software completely closed?  I can't help but think it has something to do with that, since your provider is actually Insight BB, and it's showing up as "aol".

I know what the average says, but that is somewhate deseptive, as there are people on different versions of AOL, and all have different providers and service plans.  It just seems to me if your upload is twice the speed of your download, then something most likely on your end is choking up that connection, and I don't think it's a tweaking issue.

With AOL completely closed, try running the network diagnostic test here: http://198.32.11.146:7123/tcpbw100.html

and post the results...

Link didn't work for me.  :cheesy:

I'm thinking modem now. We've had this old 3Com sharkfin for 5 years.

What is the best cable modem? (for Insight BB)

Motorola SB51XX's are good, I would call your ISP, and see which modems you can and can't use.

I tend to agree with ghostmaster.  Your speeds/results are most likely being adversely affected by AOL.  Just close AOL(also ctrl+alt+del and close all AOL processes you can find), and open Internet Explorer, and test through that.

Yeah, tried that. MSIE (with AOL out of the picture) was just as bad. I think it's the modem.

Ordered a 5120 from Newegg ... $54.00 shipped.  :grin2:

thanks for the help guys, I'll post my findings when the new modem is up.

Mike

I don't use AOHell. I have a WebSTAR DPC2100r2 from Insight. Yes your modem is not compatable any more. If you are renting the modem tell them you want a new one. If you own it I would go to Walmart and get a Motorola SB5120 for $59.00.

Hee hee, yes I'm very pleased with that - just from a modem change.  :smile2:

And on AOL, to boot? Surprised, too.

GeForce 7600 and 512 more memory in tomorrow ... I may end up with a pretty good machine.

Mike

That to that, he had better be more than happy with that. He should be ecstatic.  :lol: At least I would be.
