TCP properties for IP = XXXXXXXXXX ()

Notes: Read the Analyzer FAQ if the above is not your IP address.
TCP options string = 020405b401010402
MTU = 1500
MTU is fully optimized for broadband.
MSS = 1460
Maximum useful data in each packet = 1460, which equals MSS.
Default TCP Receive Window (RWIN) = 65535
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 0 bits
Unscaled TCP Receive Window = 65535

Note: TCP 1323 Options need to be enabled for RWIN over 2^16 (65535). Windows 9x might also need the MS Vtcp386 fix.
For optimum performance, consider changing RWIN to a multiple of MSS.
Other RWIN values 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 TCP Window limits you to: 2621.4 kbps (327.675 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your TCP Window limits you to: 1048.56 kbps (131.07 KBytes/s) @ 500ms
MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON

TTL value is ok.

Hi angelo, your English is fine, try the following:

Download the TCP Optimizer and try the following settings.

General Settings tab:

Custom settings - check
Modify All Network Adapters - check
network adapter selection - your NIC
MTU - 1500
TTL - 64
TCP Receive Window - 128480
MTU Discovery - Yes
Black Hole Detect - No
Selective Acks - Yes
Max Duplicate ACKs - 3
TCP 1323 Options:
Windows Scaling - check
Timestamps - uncheck

Advanced Settings tab:

Max Connections per Server - 10
Max Connections per 1.0 Server - 20
LocalPriority - 5
Host Priority - 6
DNSPriority - 7
NetbtPriority - 8
Lan Browsing speedup - optimized
QoS: NonBestEffortLimit - 0
ToS: DisableUserTOSSetting - 0
ToS: DefaultTOSValue - 92
MaxNegativeCacheTtl - 0
NetFailureCacheTime - 0
NegativeSOACache Time - 0
LAN Request Buffer Size - 32768

Then select "Apply Changes" and reboot to take effect.

VERY IMPORTANT TO DO THE FOLLOWING:

1. Under your LAN connection - properties - general tab, uninstall all the protocols there that you do not need. For a stand alone pc all you need is Internet Protocol TCP/IP.

2. Open IE and select tools - internet options - connections - LAN settings, make sure NOTHING there is checked.

3. ALWAYS connect your modem via ethernet (NIC) and make sure you have the latest drivers for your NIC from the manufacturer and set your duplex mode to "auto". If you are using a router make sure you have the latest firmware.

4. Clean out your temporary internet files with CrapCleaner.

5. Power cycle your modem i.e. unplug it for at least 15 seconds.

6. Download, update and scan with SpyBot S&D 1.4, Ad-Aware SE 1.06, AVG Anti-Spyware 7.5 & SUPERAntiSpyware to remove any spyware then install and update SpywareBlaster 3.5.1 to stay spyware FREE.

7. If you aren't currently using a firewall or anti-virus profram then I suggest you install Comodo Firewall and Active Virus Shield - (setup instructions HERE), both are FREE and offer excellent protection.

8. Do a FREE online virus scan from BitDefender Online Scan and remove all that it finds.

9. Make sure you have ALL of the latest Windows Updates.

10. Just an FYI, if you are using Zone Alarm for a firewall it can noticeably drop your speeds.

thx a lot for a fast reply... ^_^
i'll try it at once.

The network based flow control limits the throughput to 0.41 Mbps

The TCP Receice Window of 128480 given to you is correct and good for a bandwidth up to 4 mpbs.

You have congestion in your line and that is limiting your bandwidth to only 410 kbps or 0.41 mbps:

"Information: Other network traffic is congesting the link
[S2C]: Excessive packet queuing detected
The network based flow control limits the throughput to 0.41 Mbps"

Check to ensure your comp is free from spyware and malware. If you use P2P, ensure it does not start up during a reboot as this can be working in the background and using part of your bandwidth during testing.

don't know more what to do....
ahh i'm asking why i can't perform a tracert

dunno how to fix it sry ^_^

[trogers]

Your firewall is stopping ping signals getting out as shown by the '* * *' since hop 1. You can try again after you disable your firewall.

Alternatively, you can do a reverse traceroute from the US back to your IP address to check your ISP's connection. Use this link:

http://www.dnsstuff.com/

Do you use a router? If yes, try testing your speed by connecting your comp directly to your modem.

[angelo_ita]

i'v solved the pinging and trace routing, settings on router firewall and outpost firewall... i'm using USR 9108 as a gateway 'coz sad to say i don't have the modem anymore i misplaced it and it's not ethernet, the ISP gave only the USB...

Information [S2C]: Excessive packet queuing detected

I am suspicious of the ' * ' at your modem (hop 2). If possible, borrow a modem from a friend and test your comp with router connected. If speed climbs up to near normal, your modem may be faulty.
