As the title indicates, I would like to increase my upload speed. I do have cablenut 4.08 installed but rather then mess with it myself, i decided to go to the experts.
1. What type of connection do you have? i.e. 56K, ISDN, DSL (PPPoE or not), Cable etc.
I am running Cable
2. Who is your ISP and what is your advertised speed from them? i.e. Cox.net & 3000/256 - this is advertised in kilobits per second.
Charter Communications 1500/768
3. What are your current settings now? Do a TCP/IP Analyzer test and copy and paste the results (remember to XXXXX out your IP address) here.
TCP properties for IP = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ()
Browser/OS = Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98; Win 9x 4.90; YComp 5.0.0.0)
Notes: Read the Analyzer FAQ if the above is not your IP address.
TCP options string = 020405b40103030401010402
MTU = 1500
MTU is fully optimized for broadband.
MSS = 1460
Maximum useful data in each packet = 1460, which equals MSS.
Default Receive Window (RWIN) = 1000000
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 4 bits (scale factor of 8)
Unscaled Receive Window = 62500
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: 40000 kbps (5000 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 16000 kbps (2000 KBytes/s) @ 500ms
MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON
Time to live left = 114 hops
TTL value is ok.
Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF
Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = ON
IP type of service field (RFC1349) = 00000000
By the way, I must mention that someone on this shared family computer, someone has been screwing with drtcp so the rwin number is a little messed up.
4. Please tell us your operating system i.e. 95, 98, 98SE, ME, 2K or XP.
Windows Millenium Edition (ME)
