yes mnostelle i deleted all the spyware and the stuff out of temp and nothing under lan settings. im using direcway sense all i can get out here.

Browser/OS = Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)
Notes: Read the Analyzer FAQ if the above is not your IP address.

TCP options string = 020405b4
MTU = 1500
MTU is fully optimized for broadband.
MSS = 1460
Maximum useful data in each packet = 1460, which equals MSS.

Default Receive Window (RWIN) = 65535
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 0 bits
Unscaled Receive Window = 65535

Note: Under Windows 9x, if you have RWIN set to any other value, and the Analyzer reports 65535 you might need to install the MS Vtcp386 fix.
For optimum performance, consider changing RWIN to a multiple of MSS.
Other values for RWIN that might work well with your current MTU/MSS:
513920 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 8)
256960 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 4)
128480 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 2)
64240 (MSS x 44)
bandwidth * delay product:

Your RcvWindow limits you to: 2621.4 kbps (327.675 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 1048.56 kbps (131.07 KBytes/s) @ 500ms
MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON
Time to live left = 120 hops

TTL value is ok.
Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF
Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = OFF
IP type of service field (RFC1349) = 00000000

Wow- Thats a bit of latency! Actually what our little office started out with. Do you know what satellite they got you on? Signal strength? Have you been to mydirecway.com for the latest software patch? Post what transponder you are on by right clicking on the DW icon in the system tray and selecting About then System Information?


You should be able to get latency on your first hop under a second pretty easily.

go to mydirecway.com . create an account, log on. Go to the downloads section and get the latest software. I cant stress that enough!:rtfm: I think the updated software is 4.0.3.9. If you have a network with ics, they have a little script for the clients.

Your on satmex 5. see my comment on your other post in the general section!

Nope, dont work there, just fought with our two way system since the Pegasus days (a reseller) for just over two years now
