TG,

Just tried your settings - wow!

MSS 536
RWIN 4829 (9 X MSS)
NDI (which you didn't list) 16
TTL 128

FTP from my ISP consistently 3.66kB/s, which is an improvement on my til-now variable speed at or below that.

From the second Microsoft ftp choice on iSpeed's drop-down list ... wait for it ... 10.3kB/s!!

Microsoft must be doing something funny at their site, 'cos no other site goes that fast. The same speed is reported by System Monitor and Cute FTP. Amazing.

My turn to thank you!

That's great news mate !

In the best traditions, the thanks are due to others - I just played their tune.

I read all the stuff about SSH and Port Forwarding and I'm still not sure I can fiddle that much; looks a bit too deep for me. I'll think about it more.

Happy surfing.

Cheers,
TG

Just found out why that MS test file in iSpeed downloads at 10k - it's an uncompressed graphics file which the modems are compressing on the fly. Should have realised that!
