You might actually be increasing lag, even if your "ms" shows it's doing better.<BR/><BR/>It would depend if you're on a fast connection whether you gain any benefit from it. If you're already close to your cap (on like a 512Kb line) you will probably wish to avoid using it. If you're on a faster line (4Mb) it might be worth trying.bbrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11741016115615619264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3676614284136193536.post-81865432800721822582008-06-16T05:29:00.000+02:002008-06-16T05:29:00.000+02:00I'm a software engineer.Here's the article describ...I'm a software engineer.<BR/>Here's the article describing the registry key value and what it does: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/328890<BR/><BR/>It sounds like it will work to some degree (although I haven't tried it ).<BR/><BR/>It responds to every TCP ACK packet rather than waiting for two to accumulate (the default value is 2). <BR/><BR/>In other words, it makes your network more "chatty". This causes your network to be busier, but it sounds like it probably would speed up the "ping" response. The only problem is that it will slow down your downloads a bit.<BR/><BR/>An analogy is, if you need to post lots of letters to a friend. Your normal way of doing this is to save up two letters and post them together in the same envelope - this is important because each envelope costs. If we change the behavior so that we immediately post every single letter in its own envelope as soon as it's ready to go, the letters will get there a bit quicker but it'll cost more. And for bulky items, say a book, I'll be sending each page in its own letter rather than sending the whole book in one package.<BR/><BR/>It's an imperfect analogy but hopefully it gets across the kind of tradeoff this registry key is tweaking.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3676614284136193536.post-66416342331623180252008-06-13T19:00:00.000+02:002008-06-13T19:00:00.000+02:00Figured it wasn't likely to work, but yeah.
