Hi, Pep. I'm curious as the the registry key that contains this value. I
have RoadRunner but the download speed is only about 1000. Thanks (and nice slueth work to find it), KB "Pep" wrote in message ... I had a fiddle with the registry, and changed the DefaultRcvWindow value from 2144 to 34432640. Solved it. Pep "N.

The OS shouldn't affect your connection speed. I regularly pull 1,290 to 1,301 downloads with SBC Yahoo! DSL Service on their 1,536kpbs Express package. PPPoE and ATM overhead eat the difference between what I actually get and my potential maximum; all with Windows ME. USB 1.1 should be good for 12Mbps, considerably higher than your 2Mbps maximum. Have you tweaked your MTU settings in the Windows ME computer? It should be capable of matching the Windows XP dl/ul speeds. -- Norman ~Win dain a lotica, En vai tu ri, Si lo ta ~Fin dein a loluca, En dragu a sei lain ~Vi fa-ru les shutai am, En riga-lint |

Go he http://www.broadbandreports.com/ Look for their tweaks section. They have a nice guide, and some downloadable tools which help find, and set, both MTU and RWIN. -- Norman ~Win dain a lotica, En vai tu ri, Si lo ta ~Fin dein a loluca, En dragu a sei lain ~Vi fa-ru les shutai am, En riga-lint |

Thanks, Norman. Interesting reading although I don't see any downloads for
WinME. I also searched my registry and found absolutely no DefaultRcvWindow entries. Now I'm surprised RoadRunner even works lol KB "N. Miller" wrote in message . ..

Did you miss this? http://www.broadbandreports.com/drtcp I am not sure where the RWIN value is stored. It is set on my WinME computer, but plugging the value (30324) into a registry search draws a blank. -- Norman ~Win dain a lotica, En vai tu ri, Si lo ta ~Fin dein a loluca, En dragu a sei lain ~Vi fa-ru les shutai am, En riga-lint |

Thanks, Norman. I did miss that. My system's been struggling a bit as of
late and I've gotten it running smoothly again. I did save your link to my favorites and may look at it later. Right now I'm taking a hands off approach and just using the system without changing or adding anything. Thanks again, Norman. KB "N. Miller" wrote in message ...

Hi KB,
Norm's right you can find info on that web-site. The actual site I used which contained details of Win ME tweaks was this one: http://www.speedguide.net/read_articles.php?id=119 The only tweak I made was the first one. There's a handy download called Dr TCP (just search using google) which you can also use to tweak your registry without manually having do it in regedit. Hope this helps.
