RaWDiZ Posted June 17, 2004 Author CID Share Posted June 17, 2004 Tha TCP Analyzer is down... But it did say this: Some common MSS sizes are: Ethernet: 1460 (1500-40) Cable: 1460 (1500-40) aDSL: 1452 (1492-40) Dialup: 536 (576-40) So I'm assuming I use the aDSL... Right?

I used the Dr Tcp from dslreports and followed tha recommendations and notes,but still no improvement.Oh yeah,how do I know if I have normal or ethernet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanBuren Posted June 18, 2004 CID Share Posted June 18, 2004 http://ttester.broadbandreports.com/tweak/block:3df186d?service=dsl&speed=256&os=winXP&via=normal This is what I have been going to lately... I used the Dr Tcp from dslreports and followed tha recommendations and notes,but still no improvement.Oh yeah,how do I know if I have normal or ethernet Rawdiz is your ISP advertised maximal download speed 256 kbps? If so you almost get top speed at these test you posted. Your current RWIN is multible with your MSS, but you can try to change your RWIN even higher to 11616. Dont change anything else, the tweak tester result recommend you to change MTU to 1500, thats wrong!!! MTU detection is enabled.

RaWDiZ Posted June 18, 2004 Author CID Share Posted June 18, 2004 So what should I use to change tha RWIN... TcP Optimizer,Tcp Docter,Or Cablenut. I think my max is 256 i ono,I have the first package:http://www.fastaccess.com/content/consumer/products.jsp And what should i do about tha MTU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTB Posted June 18, 2004 CID Share Posted June 18, 2004 Yes, your max download is 256 kbps. Pretty expensive for that speed. It doesn't matter which program you use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to the box MTU and erase it if its any value in that, dont add anything in that box, leave it blank. 3. click save, click exit, reboot your pc.

lorne Posted June 18, 2004 CID Share Posted June 18, 2004 Disable XP's firewall it sucks and can really slow you down. I think it is in IE Properties>Advanced, just uncheck it. XP will turn it on sometimes so check it every once and awhile to make sure it is still off. If that is ZA 5 i would get rid of it and get 4, cause 5 is buggy as hell and alot of people are having trouble with it. Or even better get Agnitum Outpost firewall it kicks ZA's ass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would leave these settings you got, as they are now. You can change back RWIN to 7260 if you want but the value u got now will help your download speed from servers with high ping.

RaWDiZ Posted June 18, 2004 Author CID Share Posted June 18, 2004 Do I have normal or ethernet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanBuren Posted June 18, 2004 CID Share Posted June 18, 2004 Do I have normal or ethernet I cant c that from here. But i dont think its "normal" cos the tweaktester recommend you to use a MTU of 1500. Anyway dont worry, your MTU is correct cos you have MTU discovery enabled.

RaWDiZ Posted June 18, 2004 Author CID Share Posted June 18, 2004 Look what happpend when I put it on ethernet,using tha 11616 settings http://ttester.broadbandreports.com/tweak/block:3327128?service=dsl&speed=256&os=winXP&via=enternet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
