Changing the MaxMTU and other Network Settings
There are four network settings that can be configured so when dialing
to an ISP, you should get somewhat greater throughput. They are the
MaxMTU, MaxMSS and DefaultRcvWindow, and DefaultTTL
MaxMTU and MaxMSS
- Start REGEDIT
- Go to Hkey_Local_Machine / System / CurrentControlset / Services /
Class / netTrans / 000n
(where n is your particular network adapter
binding.)
- Right click on the right panel
- Select New / String Value
- Type in MaxMTU
- Double click on it and enter then the number you want. The usual
change is to 576
- Similarly, you can add MaxMSS and give it a value of 536
DefaultRcvWindows and DefaultTTL
- Start REGEDIT
- Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ System \ CurrentControlSet \ Services
\ VxD \ MSTCP
- Add a new string DefaultRcvWindow and give it a value of 2144
- Add a new string DefaultTTL and give it a value of 60-64
