16060 was recommended. That gave me a additional 125 kbps for starters,
guess I can try fine tuning. What is the best way to start the guess
work now and what increments do you adjust? Thanks for the site! |

Then that's more than likely an optimal setting for your connection. If you
want to try any changes then I would suggest doubling that size, if it gets
better then increase it again. If it gets worse then just increase your
original setting by 50%. I'm afraid that it's just trial and error, FWIW my
setting for RWIN was recommended as 32976 by the dslreports tweaks test
page.

thats quite a difference in recommended RWIN settings. wonder why the |
big differences? my cable company seems to advertise 750 kbps as their
delivered speed by contract, I would imagine yours must be much higher
from a guess. |

Sorry, I forgot to state the obvious. Yes, my speed is 2Mbps download and
the recommendation from dslreports depends on the download speed. As I
said, it is only a recommendation so you can try any size you like but too
large and you'll find your download slowing.
