boywonder Posted December 24, 2005 CID Share Posted December 24, 2005 What service provider do you use? You can try out ROM-DOS's recommended CableNut setting http://www.testmy.net/forum/index.php?topic=9723.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdf216 Posted December 25, 2005 CID Share Posted December 25, 2005 Connection speed is determined by the quality of your phone line... with 53.3 being the highest possible, your 50.2 is excellent though your actual download speed could be improved. but I think that is a latency issue. try making the following changes: DefaultReceiveWindow = 32768 DefaultSendWindow = 16384 DisableAddressSharing = 1 InitialLargeBufferCount = 200 InitialMediumBufferCount = 480 InitialSmallBufferCount = 640 LargeBufferSize = 819200 MaxFastTransmit = 64000 MediumBufferSize = 150400 Priority Boost = 0 SmallBufferSize = 12800 TransmitWorker = 32 FastSendDatagramThreshhold = 4096 EnableFastRouteLookup = 1 EnablePMTUDiscovery = 1 IgnorePushBitsOnReceives = 0 GlobalMaxTcpWindowSize = 17520 MaxFreeTcbs = 8000 MaxHashTableSize = 16384 MaxNormLookupMemory = 5000000 SackOpts = 1 SynAttackProtect = 1 Tcp1323Opts = 0 TcpLogLevel = 1 TcpMaxDupAttacks = 3 TcpMaxHalfOpen = 100 TcpMaxHalfOpenRetired = 80 TcpRecvSegmentSize = 1460 TcpSendSegmentSize = 1460 TcpTimedWaitDelay = 30 TcpUseRFC1122UrgentPointer = 0 TcpWindowSize = 17520 MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server = 10 MaxConnectionsPerServer = 8 DefaultTimeToLive = 64 DefaultUserTOSSetting = 0 TcpMaxDataRetransmissions = 6 DefaultTOSValue = 240 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimPawlak Posted December 26, 2005 Author CID Share Posted December 26, 2005 It's the same..... bought a new phone line... works the same also... lol it's not mine so i dont care:) its his problem...rotfl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resopalrabotnick Posted December 26, 2005 CID Share Posted December 26, 2005 bought a new phone line? you mean a new cord in the house? with phone line quality being relevant he meant the line from the telco to you. all the connections on switches, the state of the cables, gauge of cables, interference on cables etc. etc. etc. playing into that. if you've got a cruddy line to your house you can pass the signal to the comp through gold ingots and it won't affect your speed. well, ok, it will slow you down because gold, while being good as a contact because of it's softness doesn't actually conduct all that well. but you get the general idea. or not. doesn't matter. have a nice day.

cholla Posted December 26, 2005 CID Share Posted December 26, 2005 TimPawlak ; 45 Kbps is pretty good for dial-up especially if that is average for you.There are some Cablenut suggestions in All Dial -up. Try some of the other tweaks to make your browser load better this can make it work faster that the test indicates.How does it web surf ?

raptors892004 Posted December 27, 2005 CID Share Posted December 27, 2005 I personally think that this is about the dial-up's max speed, because 50.2/56kbps (theoritical max limit) is pretty darn good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
