<title>[DSL] Confused about RWIN settings</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20426026</link>
<description><![CDATA[Ok here are the answers to the 11 questions:

1) tweak test: http://www.dslreports.com/tweakr/block:1df43d2?service=dsl&speed=3000&os=winXP&via=routerpppoe

2) 
I used speakeasy, new york, NY

3) Not allowed to do line quality test, it's for members only.

4) DSL
   Verizon
   Westell Modem, model E90-610015-06

5) I do not use PPPoe connection software.

6) N/A

7) Windows XP

8) Advertised speed is 3 mb

9) There is another pc hooked up to my router. It has its own wireless internet but doesn't work unless it is hardwired to my router. I have no idea if they are networked. I have never set up a network or VPN. A friend set it up for me.

10) Netgear FVS318

11) The tool for figuring CO distance is not working but I know mine is about a block away from me.

I just want to know if I should change my RWIN settings. I have used the Dr.TCP tool and the field is already filled in with 256960. This is much higher than what the tweak FAQ says it usually is. The tweak test recommended 28560 - 75684. It said the higher the number the better so should I leave it the way it is. I have already done the command prompt test to figure out my MTU and I have changed it to 1468 on my pc and router. As of the posting of these results, I have not rebooted so my new MTU setting may not be reflected in test results. I also wanted to mention that I kept getting a time out message when I was doing the command prompt ping tests. I went to great pains to make sure my pc was free of malware and other things. I upgraded my RAM to 1 gb. I still have really slow internet and it hangs constantly.]]></description>

<title>[Tweak Test] Looking to tweak my connection</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20453632</link>
<description><![CDATA[Here are my test results:

http://www.dslreports.com/tweakr/block:3a22b74?service=dsl&speed=16000&os=winXP&via=routerpppoe

Unfortunately, I have absolutely no clue what any of them mean. I just upgraded from 10 megs to 16, and want to try and push the most out of my connection as possible. Any help is appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I look forward to some responses.

<title>[Line Test] Pingable request</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20424677</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hello,
I have changed echo request settings in Kaspersky IS 7.0 to become pingable.  Windows firewall is disabled.  I'm running XP SP2, 768k DSL through Embarq.
No router or hardware block.  
Speed test: 387/down    192/up  best   
Tweak test: http://www.dslreports.com/tweakr/block:3968eb3?
Line Quality Test:  Unpingable
I'm not sure what else to try to allow ping activity.  I feel my degraded speed is line related and Line Quality Test is a no-go without ping.  What am I missing that is needed for the ping?  Thanks.]]></description>

<title>Road Runner Speed Issue with  XPSP2</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20444229</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hello,

My download speed for my XP box is really slow, and lately it is freezing on dowloads of 300 to 500 MB. The initial download speed starts out high then steadily decreases, then the download stops. As noted below I have a home network with 4 subnets (1 for the XP box, 1 for wireless, 1 for 2003 server-DMZ, and 1 unused). I do not have this speed issue with the 2003 server box. The only time I use the VPN configuration is when I connect to my job.
Please help ... below is the requested info
