Plenty of conflicting information out there about this. I'm inclined to believe what this guy (http://cable-dsl.home.att.net/) has to say about it.

Some mistakes are too much fun to make only once.

www.dslreports.com/tools (http://www.dslreports.com/tools) has a pretty nice GUI for changing your RWIN.

They also have a tool at www.dslreports.com/tweaks (http://www.dslreports.com/tweaks) that will check your settings and help you decide if you need to change them. It is specific to your OS and connection type.

DRTCP (http://www.dslreports.com/front/drtcp.html) is a good utility that you can use to adjust your MTU and RWIN. When you tweak your settings be sure to select the correct network adapter if you have multiple adapters. Actually the default Win XP Pro settings are optimal you might get a little more by adjusting your settings but I doubt it
