Re: [Tweak Test] Trying to tweak my computer for 30/5mb Optimum

Sorry, had a busy few days. Now I'm having some freezing issues with my PC. Anyways, here's what I got:

1. Set Tcp Receive Window to 256960, and set the other settings to default as you said. Left the Acks and TTL blank.

2. Reran the Tweak Test. Here's the results from the Tweak Test: »/tweakr/block:···a=normal

3. Ran the Speed Tests from 2 different cities nearest me. here are those results:

a. Download Speed: 24291 kbps
Upload Speed: 4886 kbps
b. Download Speed: 21049 kbps
Upload Speed: 2774 kbps

4. Ran the FTP test, twice. Transfer rates were 1.63MB/Sec the first time, and 1.50MB/Sec the second time.

That is not too bad. Lets bump the RWIN a little ans let's see what that does.

289080 for the RWIN. Leave thins as they are for the other fields. Run the Tweak Tester again and some speed tests.

I set the RWIN to 284060. I had an issue opening internet explorer at the higher setting. It would freeze when I tried to open it. Here's the latest tweak:
»/tweakr/block:···a=normal

My latest speed tests from Speakeasy were between 16000kb/s and 19000 kb/s down, and 4000-5000 up.

I did a speedtest thru Netaccess here on DSLReports.com My results from that were: 12724/5112 Kbps

What do you think? I still don't seem to be getting near the 30mb download speed I'm supposed to. Would it helped if I bought more RAM for my computer. I've been wanting to do that anyways. I only have 512 mb of RAM that came with the computer. I was thinking of buying two 1mb chips and installing. Would that help?

• Back it down to 256960

• What MODEM do you have?

• More RAM will not help with speed tests, but it will improve the performance of the box.

• As I mentioned above, OOL is having issues with the high speed tiers.
