RoidRage Posted February 16, 2005 CID Share Posted February 16, 2005 Hi, I'm new in here , I've read a lot of post and a lot of persons here looks really knowleageable so I thought maybe somebody could help me. Here is my problem. I just got 3Mbits/0.8Mbits DSL connection yesterday. Here are the results I have: ::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 1031 Kbps about 1 Mbps (tested with 748 KB) Download Speed is:: 126 KB/s Tested From:: http://www.testmy.net/ Test Time:: Wed Feb 16 2005 17:39:01 GMT-0500 (Est) Bottom Line:: 18X faster than 56K 1MB download in 8.13 sec Diagnosis: May need help : running at only 60.72 % of your hosts average (sympatico.ca) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/id-YGEL3JSIN ::.. Upload Stats ..::: Connection is:: 622 Kbps about 0.6 Mbps (tested with 579 KB) Upload Speed is:: 76 KB/s Tested From:: http://www.testmy.net/ Test Time:: Wed Feb 16 2005 17:39:47 GMT-0500 (Est) Bottom Line:: 11X faster than 56K 1MB upload in 13.47 sec Diagnosis: Awesome! 20% + : 72.3 % faster than the average for host (sympatico.ca) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/id-0WMUK5Y1O I live in Canada By the way. I think my upload is normal (maybe a bit slow) but my download is definitly not. The strange thing is that I ran the test yesterday and I was about at 2.6 Mbits. Today, it's stuck at about 1. I'm using a SpeedStream 5200 Modem. I don't know if it can influence, but in my book it's said to have a line that is no longer than 6 feets but mine is 20 (My appartement configuration is weird lol) Anyway, Thanks In Advance. Every Input will Be Aprreciatied Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanBuren Posted February 16, 2005 CID Share Posted February 16, 2005 hey again im glad it helped did you check what MSS you had, and what MSS did you use? i have 2 MSS values for win 98/ME 1460 and 1452 with this analyzer and windows default values, you can see your ISP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoidRage Posted February 16, 2005 Author CID Share Posted February 16, 2005 Is it what you wanted ? 1. Your Tweakable Settings: Receive Window (RWIN): 63888 Window Scaling: off Path MTU Discovery: ON RFC1323 Window Scaling: OFF RFC1323 Time Stamping: OFF Selective Acks: ON MSS requested: 1452 TTL: unknown TTL remaining: 116 2. Test 146000 byte download Actual data bytes sent: 146000 Actual data packets: 101 Max packet sent (MTU): 1492 Max packet recd (MTU): 1492 Retransmitted data packets: 0 sacks you sent: 0 pushed data pkts: 5 data transmit time: 0.369 secs our max idletime: 210.1 ms transfer rate: 151169 bytes/sec transfer rate: 1209 kbits/sec This is not a speed test! transfer efficiency: 100% Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanBuren Posted February 16, 2005 CID Share Posted February 16, 2005 looking good, keep visiting and tell your friends about this site you wanted me to explain what happend the default TCP settings on win 98 and ME is basicly made for LAN connections with very low ping if you have a low ping you wont need a big receivebuffer ( RWIN ) to get a fast transfer rate here is a defenition of RWIN "DefaultRcvWindow - This parameter determines the maximum TcpReceiveWindow size offered by the system. The receive window specifies the number of bytes a sender may transmit without receiving an acknowledgment. In general, larger receive windows will improve performance over high (delay * bandwidth ) networks. For highest efficiency, the receive window should be an even multiple of the TCP Maximum Segment Size (MSS)." the RWIN can be calculated, if you know the MSS, latency and the Bandwidth your ISP offer VanBuren j7n 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoidRage Posted February 16, 2005 Author CID Share Posted February 16, 2005 Thanks a lot for the explanation Van Burren Been Really helpful Last thing I don't Understand. I'm a student and this is my father's old computer when I was still living at my fathers home. I was having a 6000/768 Cable connection there. How come I never had that kind of problem?

MICROWAVE Posted February 18, 2005 CID Share Posted February 18, 2005 When I was running Win 98se from this location 2 years ago 98se ran alot faster than XP now does....the main problem was that it crashed and locked up frequently.... but when it was running good it was fast, also of course 98se doesn't have near the features that XP has and I'm very happy with XP and wouldn't go back to 98se for any speed.....
