Cable/DSL tweak experiences

[jon12345678]

The roadrunner site says that the receive window size should be 8760. But all the tweak sites recommend a lot higher.

This site says to change it to 32767. And that it's the only setting that matters. I tried numerous other settings on my win98 computer and it did seem faster.

This site recommends an even higher rcvwindow size. And some other tweaks as well.

My windows XP computer's default is 64240. I'm planning to do some tweaking again and would like some input on everyone's experiences. I used to be the kind of person who would try every tweak to see which ones work. This forum has made me lazy .

Probably won't see much improvement with XP. 95/98 yes, since they both kinda assume a dialup connection and therefore a small packet size.

Not as much an issue with XP/NT/2000, though.

As Xyad said, I noticed a big improvement with my 98 PC, www.pcpitstop.com increased the buffer to 60 some thousand. XP didn't need any tweaking per pitstop.
