Speed Up Your Download Speed

A simple tweak for increasing your transfer rate is adjusting the packet size
Data is transferred in packets through the internet.  After tweaking the
RWIN, MTU and MSS (see Modem Tips for more info), we can change the Windows'
Network packet size setting.   The default setting is Automatic.  But if the
size of the packet in transfer is wrong, the transfer rate is effected
(overrun or underrun).

Setting it to "Small" seems to ensure a faster burst rate.  Try it for
yourself.

Steps:
Open the Control Panel
Choose Network
Highlight Dial-Up Adapter
Click Properties
Click the Advanced Tab
Under Property: select "IP Packet Size"
Under Value: choose "Small".

That's it, choose "Ok" to close both windows.
