Hi
May be this can Help.
Download DrTCP: http://www.dslreports.com/front/DRTCP021.exe
Run the program, it will show the current settings of TCP/IP parameters.
Write them down.
You can change any variable that you want, click Apply, and Reboot the
computer, if no good; you can always change to your original values.
Start with:
MTU - DSL =1492, Cable = 1500, ISDN=1322, DialUp = 576
Tcp Receive - 256960 (This is the variable to play with!)
Window Scaling - Yes
Time Stamping - No
Selective Acks - Yes
Path MTU Discovery - Yes.
Black Hole - NO
Max Duplicate - 2
TTL - 64
These settings are not written in "stone" there is variability depending on
the computer other setting. So try few setting and measure your Download for
each setting.
In addition, in case a person has a Router the Router's MTU if set
differently can affect the general MTU.
