After changing the DWORD values to "15 hex"

Jlester. Hello. Could you post where exactly in your registry did you make that DWORD value change to 15 hex. Thanks

[jlester]

Start>run>type in "regedit"

HKEY_CURRENT_USER-software-microsoft-windows-current version-internet settings

Navigate through the left panes then in the right pane. right click and choose "new" DWORD value

Once they are there, to edit

Well this goes to show that everyones system is different. I am going to put my setting back in and re-test. I will post the results.

Well my speed before did not show. It was approx. 16. I have changed my setting back to 20 and 40. Here are the results with those settings up and down.

This appears to show that each system is different. Wow you would think it would be closer. Who knows. Tweaks I am running now are.....

Rev's TCP Optimizer

Upload tweak>>>>

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

SYSTEM

CURRENTCONTROLSET

SERVICES AFD

DWORD VALUE----PARAMETERS

DEFAULTSENDWINDOW.......b000

I do believe each system is different, but some of you may want to try this. You should know that I have experienced a slowdown using different tweaks from different websites. I repeat these are the only tweaks I use. I just did a complete restore of my system so everything is at default EXCEPT for the above mentioned tweaks.

What do we name this new dword value that you mentioned? 15(HEX)? Or is that the value?

Thanks,

That can also be changed in TCP Optimizer!!! and before you make changes you might want to export that part of the Reg for safe keeping so if there is a problem you can always change back..... good luck... in TCP the tweak changes it from default to 20 and 40

John,

Thanks for the instructions. I was able to follow them and tweak my system. Unfortunately, the tweak didn't help much because the max connection have already been set on my machine in the tcp optimizer. (thanks for telling me the tweak and the max connections are the same thing Microwave) Anyways, thanks a lot for the help.
