~~~ ULTIMATE SPEED! ~~~

[31337]

Ok here is my computer first of all:
Dell Dimenstion L733r series stats:
CPU speed: 733mHZ Pentium III processor
Memory: 128 megs SDRAM
Hard Drive: 40 gig HD (7200 RPM)
Ethernet: 3com Etherlink 10/100 PCI 3C905C-TX NIC card
ISP: Central New York Road Runner Cable ISP
OS: Windows ME custom tweaked by me.

Now, heres the story, I have tweaked for a long time, i've tryed every program, including speedguide's tweaks, i modified the ph webtweak to this:
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
"MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server"=dword:00000016
"MaxConnectionsPerServer"=dword:00000016

It works much faster, try it.
Next, I tested a whole bunch of tweaks involving the DefaultRcvWindow and TTL.
I've set the DRW (default rcv window) to the following values: 32767, 372300, 65535, 65534, 93440, and the recent one from speedguide. I also tried the TTL values at: 32, 64, 128, and 256. Here is where I tested: http://www.computingcentral.com/topics/bandwidth/speedtest50.asp
http://www.Speedus.com
http://www.dslreports.com/doconcern
ftp://ftp.twcny.rr.com/pub/swdownload/tars/test.zro (my ISP's ftp)

Now I rebooted between each resetting of the registry, and deleted all cookies and temp. internet files. also cleared history. im using MSIE 5.5. And then I came across a site: http://www.fast-mhz.com (sometimes slow site, be patient) and I looked at their cable tweak, so I deleted all my tweaks using the speedguide patch to reset windows to its original values. Then I added just one string value to the: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\MSTCP
Here it is: DefaultRcvWindow
I set the value to 49152
The ONLY things that should be in the section after u delete the tweaks, and add the one above should be:
Default (value not set)
DefaultRcvWindow (49152)
EnableDNS (0)
Lanabase (0)
LMhostFile (c:\windows\lmhosts
LocalCopyMade (1)
Just have that, delete anything else make sure we have Windows 95/98/98SE/ME first.

Reboot, and check out the speed difference!

I noticed a MUCH higher speed increase, from my ISP's ftp I went from 249kb/sec dropping to a steady 133kb/sec to: 400kb/sec dropping to a steady 210-230kb/sec. Test it and let me know!!!

Hello
I Haven't tryed setting
"MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server"=dword:00000016
"MaxConnectionsPerServer"=dword:00000016

Like this How ever I found that they were set to high in Cablenuts tweak and they looked like this

"MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server"=dword:000000e0
"MaxConnectionsPerServer"=dword:000000e0

Now I have them like this

"MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server"=dword:0000000a
"MaxConnectionsPerServer"=dword:00000008

I would have to check those settings and see, but I am not at home the ones I have gave me a boost in speed of 200K more.

My RWIN is currently 373760 with MTU of 1500 and MSS of 1460

and my download speeds are so far a steady 1.9meg D/L and I only have a p133 with 80 megs of RAM http://www.speedguide.net/ubb/smile.gif

My old 300 was faster than my new one on cable by far, I just think it was the Ethernet card, either that or the fact that I was running Windows 98, also I tryed cablenut, and his prog sux!!! It totally screwed my download and ping, lowest i've ever seen for cable! Good thing I deleted them, its a bs program, it wont help, and im sick of all the hype behind it!!!

Same area on a winME machine
Not sure about the ISP

[31337]

thats great, but i've had at least 6 other people I know with cable around here Road Runner try it, and it gave them bad results, even a friend in arizona who had DSL said it f'ed up his connection... from personal experience i can tell u, that his values make NO sense! also the cachetimeout is not even a valid registry entry. How can he explain that? its mostly just cluttering the registry with un-needed values

* Results
* Your public IP address is xxx.xx.xxx.xxx
* Your MTU is set ok
* Quick packet-loss tested ok
* Your RWIN is set ok at 49152
* Conclusion.. HEALTHY SETUP!
* End

TNX the results speaks for them self

see? try those DanJr and u too Cablenut

Personally 31337 im not even going to care about what you think since you have made it obvious that you are a jerk by acting like one. Your posting looks as to place you around the age of 12, anyway do you even know how many people download my program and get faster results? why about 6000 just on tweakfiles.com alone. I didn't catch any hype about my program did you dannjr? if so where is it? This program is not mentioned for dsl connections hence the name.

CacheTimeout = milliseconds

Data Type: DWORD
For Windows 98, the Data Type is a String value.

Specifies how long NetBIOS names are cached. The minimum is 60,000 milliseconds (1 minute). The default is 360,000 milliseconds (6 minutes).

I don't see where you get that cache timeout is not a valid entry, since it has no max you can give it any time amount you want. Im glad you figured out your own settings even though your rwin window looks a bit low (that would actually cause you not be maxmize your bandwith and have less throughoput). For some the cablenut program won't work it is just like everything in life it isn't perfect.

oh and ps. the: http://www.computingcentral.com/topics/bandwidth/speedtest50.asp speedtest is widly innaccurate..

Hi 31337,
I've been "testing" the 49152 setting for about 11 months / suggest you try it at 491520. It works good for me. So does cablenut's, speedguide's, and the number on the license plate of my car. Just plugged in
64240 and downloaded the 41.1MB test from dannjr's site at 368.3 KB/s. My computer is a lowly eMachine 533i, 192 MB sdram, win98se,
4.3 GB hdd, and @home.

Sure beats my dialup and these folks have/are
teaching and helping me a bunch!!

I'm on RoadRunner in Central NY also and Cablenuts program did not mess me up! I got on average 230-240KB/s on file downloads using it. I'm running a Celeron 300, 96MB ram
It didn't work for you but it has worked for others. The speed you are getting now is what RR/cny users should be getting with the cap at 2mb.

All you actualy did by deleting alot of registry keys was set them back to the default for your OS and increase your DefaultRcvWindow

NOT ALL CONNECTIONS ARE CREATED EQUIL..
To put down someones hard work and effort is BS There are allot of people that have done the math. Your lucky right now with your connection the way its setup..
Wait till you get a few more people on your node or the ISP decides to change the rules. They do it without warning.

All I'm saying is there is more to it than you know right now..
If it wasn't for this forum and speedguide and cablenut and the list goes on you would be in the dark.
All the settings in Cablenuts program are legit they come direct from Microsoft the settings in the example I made above that Jesse23 is very happy with are the older settings from one of cablenuts patch's just with a twist..
By example when I say no two connections are the same I can setup a LAN in a office or like in my home, and not one of the connection to the server will be exactly the same with the same settings..
One more example I have the win2k tweak out for some it works good for others the retun to default patch works as a tweak as well, as long as you follow certain rules with it.

By the way this is an example of a healthy setup

* Your public IP address is None of your business
Hops left before discard (TTL) is 98
TCPopts hex string is 020405a60103030301010402
Max Segment Size is 1446
* Your MTU is set ok
Window Scaling 3 bits (RFC1323)
SACK Permitted (RFC2018)
Ping stability 79 76 79 81 79 76 75 79 75 75
* Quick packet-loss tested ok
Scaled DefaultRcvWindow (RWIN) is 352256
Your RWIN limits you @77.4ms to 36408kbps
Your RWIN limits you @200ms to 14090kbps
* Your RWIN is advertised as 352256 (scaling is on)
(Beyond 65k, advertised RWIN is scaled)
Your Path MTU Discovery is ON
Max sized data packet from you 1486
* Conclusion.. HEALTHY SETUP!
End

Gee I'm using Cachetimeout with this

All I'm saying is If you took the time to learn about setting the values to your connection you could be even faster.
I get 500KB/sec at the beginning of my Download and finish at 213KB/sec I'm on DSL and should not get more than 150KB/sec.

Another example: Mystic who is also here gets quite a bit more than you on his railroad connection like 600KB/sec average on peak hours..

The quality of the NIC also makes a big difference. I used to have a RealTek one and only get 250KB/s now I get anywhere from 430KB/s to 1MB/s
