AOL broadband tweaking?

[Vexotos]

Hello is it possible to tweak my AOL broad band. ive used that tcp/ip analyser and i cannt help but notice that my Rwin values are very very low. Can n e 1 offer n e suggestions as to how to imrove them? Its AOL DSL broadband and the advertised speed is 512KBS. The Tcp/ip aanalyser thing aint workin at the mo ill post it in a new reply.

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

Default Receive Window (RWIN) = 5840
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 0 bits
Unscaled Receive Window = 5840

RWIN is 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 (Note this is not a speed test):

Your RcvWindow limits you to: 233.6 kbps (29.2 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your RcvWindow limits you to: 93.44 kbps (11.68 KBytes/s) @ 500ms
Consider increasing your RWIN value to optimize TCP/IP for broadband.
MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON
Time to live left = 55 hops

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

You can't tweak AOHELL.

You can't tweak AOHELL.

I think it's possible. The way I connect to AOL using my router/adsl modem I don't use the AOL tcp/ip stack. You don't need AOL installed. In the UK anyway. I just see my username to screenname@aol.com and my pass. And set the VPI/VCI 0,38. This can also be done with adsl modems. Just set the telephone number for windows to dial as 0,38.

even if you connect to aol using the modem and rotuer you still have to go though there proxies that's why it can't be tweaked.
