Cable Modem
I use TCP Optimize and my RWIN is 450000 ... when I switch Proxo off as a proxy my RWIN setting is still 450000 ... so I quit frankly do not understand the issue here
Yes I am connected to the Internet via the following chain: Cable Modem-->Router-->4 PC's Windows XP/Pro/SP2 Yes Proxo does slow things down a little bit ... however using sidki's latest config [16-Oct-2005] --- I have noticed that the INET stuff is significantly faster over configs dated prior to 09-Jun-2005 |

I wonder if this is the same issue Nethan reported here back @ 12/25/2004: http://prxbx.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=364 what a hoot as Nethan was on dsl but with Windows 2000 SP2 reporting similar issues as Tony... so maybe it is dsl or ppoe with Win2k and above sp2 which is the common thread |

If the answer is yes, have you disabled the Windows Firewall and/or the "Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)" service? While we are waiting, would one of the afflicted try the test with the Windows Firewall off and the service killed. Add OS version to your post, Windows XP/Pro/SP2 or Windows XP/Home/SP2.

The default XP/Home install does do what is reported when used with Proxomitron. Lets hope this part of XPHome works like XPPro. This afternoon I forgot to check. So now some XP/Home/SP2 people need to answer. Turn the Windows Firewall and/or the service off run the test. You may need to reboot before the test. Turn the firewall back on. -- JJoe |

This afternoon I forgot to check. I'm using XP/Home/SP2 with windows firewall and as described I have the problem with the 32768 limit. I made this test and turned off the windows firewall and then rebooted. And now the CORRECT RWIN is submitted according to speedguide anylyzer and I have full speed. I always have to reboot for the changes to take effect. So, does this mean the windows firewall is the problem? |

SORRY, FORGET MY LAST POST.
I hadn't started proxomitron while doing the test without windows firewall. So I tested it again and turning on or of windows firewall and reboot has no effect, still RWIN reduced to 32768. As I said I'm using XP/Home/SP2. No problem with BFilter and proximodo. So I'll stick with BFilter because it is also a very good program. |
