Coolbuster's FOURmula for Faster Broadband Speed and Reduced Latency
We will use Dr. TCP
It's standalone, no need to install. You can place the exe file in any folder and just put a shortcut somewhere preferably in the desktop for easy location. The user interface is simple and it uses less system resources at a size of 1.7mb only.
Now for the tuning and tweaking part, please follow my FOURmula.
1. Download Dr. TCP
http://www.dslreports.com/drtcp2. Place a shortcut and run it.
3. Put the following values in the corresponding boxes:
* Tcp Receive Window = 128480, 513920, or 937500
* Window Scaling = Yes
* Time Stamping = No
* Selective Acks = Yes
* Dial Up (RAS) MTU = "leave it blank"
* Path MTU Discovery = Yes
* Black Hole Detection = No
* Max. Duplicate ACKs = "leave it blank"
* TTL = "leave it blank"
* Adapter Settings = "select your adapter"
* MTU = 1500
4. Click 'Save' then 'Exit' and then restart computer to apply changes.
Results:
1. Faster broadband speed.
