The following is my results from the SpeedGuide.net TCP/IP Analyzer:

TCP options string = 020405ac0103030401010402
MTU = 1492
MTU is optimized for PPoE DSL broadband. If not, consider raising MTU to 1500 for optimal throughput.
MSS = 1452
MSS is optimized for PPPoE DSL broadband. If not, consider raising your MTU value.
Default TCP Receive Window (RWIN) = 1045440
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 4 bits (scale factor of Cool
Unscaled TCP Receive Window = 65340

RWIN is a multiple of MSS
Other RWIN values that might work well with your current MTU/MSS:
511104 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of Cool
255552 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 4)
127776 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 2)
 63888 (MSS x 44)
bandwidth * delay product (Note this is not a speed test):

Your TCP Window limits you to: 41817.6 Kbps (5227.2 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your TCP Window limits you to: 16727.04 Kbps (2090.88 KBytes/s) @ 500ms
MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON
Time to live left = 56 hops
TTL value is ok.
Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF
Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = ON
IP type of service field (RFC1349) = 01011100 (92)

Precedence (priority) = 010 (immediate)
Delay = 1 (low delay)
Throughput = 1 (high throughput)
Reliability = 1 (high reliability)
Cost = 0 (normal cost)
Check bit = 0 (correct, 8th checking bit must be zero)
 
DiffServ (RFC 2474) = No valid DiffServ equivalent. See the TCP Optimizer documentation, or RFCs 2474, 2475, 2597, 2598, 2873.

Do I have to change something here...?  No valid DiffServ Equivalent?

What are your advertised speeds?

Verizon DSL 1.5 and 368 (I think?).

Sorry for late response.  Have a couple of sick children.

Do I have the right TOS value?  Currently at 92. I previously had it at 240 but I read that this was too high..is this true?

I read all of that and as a matter of fact this is where I read about TOS value and tried the 92 setting.  I still don't know if it is right.  In laments terms (is that spelled right...?) can you explain what this means and where I should be or how I could figure out the right TOS value (sort of like "TOS for Dummies" for me).
I thank you in advance.

I'm not an expert on this  I found this on the web & put it together.I changed mine to 80 it was 92.
The IP Type of Service has the following fields:

  Bits 0-2:  Precedence.
  Bit    3:  0 = Normal Delay,      1 = Low Delay.
  Bits   4:  0 = Normal Throughput, 1 = High Throughput.
  Bits   5:  0 = Normal Relibility, 1 = High Relibility.
  Bit  6-7:  Reserved for Future Use.

 Bit #0-2: [128 64 32]     
Bit #3: [16]     
Bit #4: [8]
Bit #5: [4]
Bit #6-7: [Reserved]
 Bits 0,1,2 = Priority Control:
 
  111 - Network Control use 128 + 64 + 32 = 224
  110 - Internetwork Control 128 +64 + 0 = 192
  101 - CRITIC/ECP           128 + 0 + 32 = 160
  100 - Flash Override       128 + 0 +  0 = 128 
  011 - Flash                  0 + 64 + 32 = 96
  010 - Immediate              0 + 64 + 0  = 64
  001 - Priority               0 +  0 + 32 = 32
  000 - Routine                0 +  0 +  0=   0
Bit #0-2: [128 64 32]  If I understand this 128 is on for bit 0;64 is on for bit 1,32 is on
 for bit 2.
Bit #3: [16] 16= on; 0 = off
Bit #4: [8]   8=on;  0 = off
Bit #5: [4]   4=on;  0 = off
Bit #6-7: [Reserved] Both of these have 0 for value.
From what I read on this You can only have either low delay on or High Throughput on not
both.If you set both I think your OS uses the default.Quote below:
"The TOS value is used to indicate "better".  Only one TOS value or
property can be requested in any one IP datagram.
Generally, protocols which are involved in direct interaction with a
human should select low delay, while data transfers which may involve
large blocks of data are need high throughput.  Finally, high reliability
is most important for datagram-based Internet management functions.
Application protocols not included in these tables should be able to
make appropriate choice of low delay (8 decimal, 1000 binary) or high
throughput (4 decimal, 0100 binary)."
"Reading RCF 1349, it states you have 5 choices in TOS.

            0000    (all normal)                         Use default metric
            1000    (minimize delay)                  Use delay metric
            0100    (maximize throughput)          Use default metric
            0010    (maximize reliability)            Use reliability metric
            0001    (minimize monetary cost)      Use cost metric
            other                                                  Use default metric"
"Anything higher then 010, Immediate, are ment for internal network use. Meaning packets
 that are not ment to route to the internet."
So for most I beleive one of these two would be correct:
72 which is Immediate, High Throughput, 010 010 00  That's64forImmediate+8forHighThroughput
80  which is Immediate, Low Delay,  010 100 00
