Hi guys. I'm new here. I was looking for ways to increase my download speed and I found this site. I followed Van Buren's guide and when I reach the part where I need to apply Van Buren's cablenut settings, I can't find the one that suits me. My MSS is  1440 and the DSL connection offered by my ISP is 512/256. I can't find the cablenut settings for 1440 MSS. Any help?

Thanks alot. BTW, could you as well make one for 1024/384 because my ISP told me they are gonna upgrade our connection by January. I think they meant uncapping our lines. So far the upgrade isn't applied yet but I will need the settings sooner or later. Thanks again.

 Your connection is:      409  Kbps      (about 0.4 Mbps)
You downloaded at:    50 kB/s
Your TRuSPEED™: ^info^    438 Kbps :: 54 kB/s (7% overhead factored)
Bottom Line:    You are running: 7 times faster than 56K and can download 1 megabyte in 20.48 second(s)

sigh. no improvement. still the same speed before changing any thing with cablenut. Now I'm just waiting for my ISP to uncap my line. Is getting 50kbs out of 512k download good?

If its good or not, depends on your route

i traced your ip and it says your close to malaysia, is that correct?

If so that speed is fine, remember the speedtest server is in Texas, US

Close to Malaysia? I'm in Malaysia and the broadband here isn't that satisfying.

Im telling you that you cant get 512 Kbps from testmy.net when you have that cap in malaysia

I got 10 Mbps cap and get around 3.3 Mbps against testmy.net

so be happy

give me the link to that speedtest so i can see how accurate that is, alot of speedtests is very inaccurate

also you need to consider TCP overhead, if its a file you are downloading.

its usally around 10 %

so 512 Kbps = 512 / 8 = 64 kB/s

64 x 0.9 = 57,6 kB/s = 57,6 x 8 = 460,8 Kbps as maximal downloadspeed over TCP
