Re: Questions about RWIN values...who to believe???
I didn't use any mathematical equation if that's what you're asking. I used my experience as what works for others with similar advertised speeds. You hang around here long enough you get used to what people recommend and you'll start getting the right idea. The formula was designed to be used with max latency and works quite well when you're on other side of the country not so well when you're almost sitting on top of DSLR. FWIW DSLR is in NJ somewhere.
Try this:
• Ping 134.79.252.133 its a router in Standford University.
• Now use the latency * 1.5 * 100 / 8 and you should get a pretty good RWIN in the range of sixty thousand or higher.
Makes sense or still clear as mud?
