Would like some help with my speed.


Velocity

Recommended Posts

I just recently got an upgrade from cox hsi. I have the 5768 package. When I do speed tests they vary drastically from min to min. The lowest score is 3,9 and my highest is 5.1. Is there anything I can do to make my connection more consistent or is this just a affect of network congestion?

My cablenut settings are as follows:

RWIN= 655360

DefaulSendWindow=98304

GlobalMaxTcpWindowSize=128480

TCPWindowsSize=128480

DefaultTOS=240

My most recent score:

Thanks for the quick replies. My OS is WinXP SP2. The only tweaking program that I have is Cable Nut. My advertised speed is 5120768 through Cox HSI.

looks alot better

quote "Web100 reports the Round trip time = 101.47 msec; the Packet size = 1460 Bytes; and

There were 4 packets retransmitted, 125 duplicate acks received, and 127 SACK blocks received"

only 4 packets retransmitted now compared to 24 before  ;)

what you can do is to finetune TcpWindowsize and GlobalMaxTcpWindowsize

both those values should be the same, use this RWIN calculator http://www.dslnuts.com/bitsbytes.shtml

MSS is 1460

Bandwidth in KB/s = 5000/8 = 625 KB/s

latency = the worst possible ping to your gateway, when you uploading downloading at full speed, this value suppose to be between 200 and 300 for cable. I used 250 in my tweakfiles.

try a latency of 220 that give you a TcpWindowSize and GlobalMaxTcpWindowsize of  137240

good luck

Thank You for the help :-D . This is the most consistent speed ive gotten. While downloading and uploading I was maxing out on a 190 ping. So would I be safer just leaving the 220ms ping figured in or should I tune it in for 190?

no problem Velocity, i like to help  ;)

thanks for reporting back, and understand that its impossible to make completly perfect files that work for everyone no matter isp  :D

i use a ping of 250 ms in all of my files, and that cover most, but the finetuning can always make it better
