5 NA
6 Don't know what this is
7 Win XP MCE
8 6000DN/384UP
9 No network
10 No router, do have VOIP adapter
11 NA
Strange thing was that my test results were faster last week and my tweak tests all showed good except for a consistent 1+ second stall sometimes even 2+ seconds stall. Now I get a message saying I need to set my MTU to 1500. I did this with Dr. TCP, saved, shutdown, restarted and I still get the same message. I still get the stalling.
What should I do??
TIA for any help- Really. |

| Hi ,
I appreciate the reply. I tested with and without the Sunrocket VOIP adapter in place.

The VOIP adapter seems to have an affect on performance. More so the further away the test. Why?
Also, my test results are better in general today as opposed to last night. Any ideas?
With the SR adapter disconnected the MTU warning goes away, however, I still get the 1+ stall. Is there anything I can do for either or both? |

| The VOIP adapter is most likely eating up bandwidth communicating with the companies servers. As for the 1 second stall I wouldn't worry about it, traffic is most likely cause of it.

What causes it? |

Thanks for the info! |
