ManiacalOne Posted May 9, 2005 CID Share Posted May 9, 2005 My download speed has been very low for some reason lately, and i just reformatted and it didnt seem to fix anything, its actually slower. I ran a registry cleaner and it got rid of a few problems. Then i tried Robust ISB but it doesnt speed it up at all. Im using windows 98 and alltel is my isp. :::..

blufire Posted May 10, 2005 CID Share Posted May 10, 2005 about the "target unpingable" thing -- depends on what ISP you have and where you are located... when I was on the network at ASU, I couldn't be pinged and I'd get messages like that all the time because they blocked ICMP pings, so you might have a similar situation.

blufire Posted May 14, 2005 CID Share Posted May 14, 2005 Yeah I can do that, I just need to know what the equivalent of RWIN is on unix, i think its recvspace or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orignal_Cronicus Posted May 14, 2005 CID Share Posted May 14, 2005 o wow i have no clue about that im not fammilar with unix but lemem see what i can find Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orignal_Cronicus Posted May 14, 2005 CID Share Posted May 14, 2005 RWIN" is a windows term and rmem is it's Linux equivalent -quote from dsl/broadband repots.com so i belive it would be the simillar for unix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanBuren Posted May 14, 2005 CID Share Posted May 14, 2005 Yeah I can do that, I just need to know what the equivalent of RWIN is on unix, i think its recvspace or something dont know anything about unix tweaking but try this link http://www.psc.edu/networking/projects/tcptune/ VanBuren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blufire Posted May 14, 2005 CID Share Posted May 14, 2005 I already have my system tuned a bit using BroadbandOptimizer v1.5 for OSX, and that changes a few values... I think it's working, as my brother's untuned computer gets 1.5mbit while I get 2.5-3mbit. I couldn't really get much out of the guide VanBuren posted, as most of the values seemed to be named differently... don't know why, I had thought that most of the core stuff is the same across unix variations.
