- I recently asked my ISP what his winsock settings were so I could try
- to avoid packet fragmentation, maximize file transfers, etc. They
- E-mailed me the following:
- MTU: 1500
- MSS: 212
- RWIN: 848
-
- From what I've read (on Curt's High Speed Modem FAQ and Al's Winsock
- Tuning FAQ) these settings seem a little odd to me. I'm no expert by
- any means, but it sure would be nice to hear from someone who is (AL?
- Curt? Anybody?) My Trumpet version 2.1f settings are:
- MTU: 1500
- MSS: 1460
- RWIN: 8195
-
- Should I leave mine alone or change them to my ISP's settings?
- Thanks.
