| [DW4020] tweaking the dw4020
Hi there , I am tweaking my broswer following the instruction on the FAQ # 8500 , but there are some missing lines about the registry value for the number of TCP connections with a DW4200 . I assume it's 64 but I want to be sure before messing up with the registry . I copying part of the FAQ message # 8500 putting some XXXXXX in the missing part .
The Browser Tweak
There is a tweak for your browser that can significantly increase browsing performance. This is to increase the maximum number of TCP connections per server that your browser uses above the default. This tweak is especially significant for the DW4020, but will also help with the DW6000. How you implement the tweak depends on which browser you use. What number you use depends upon which device you use. For the DW4020, since there is no HPEP proxy to help with browsing, we will set this value to a very high number, 64. For the DW6000 the number can be much lower, in fact 21 is high enough to get the maximum benefit.
For Internet Explorer users: Internet Explorer requires two new registry keys to creat this tweak. Note that if you have used the Lan Client Configuration Utility (LCCU) provided by Hughes, it will have already made these entries. You may still want to edit the entries and increase the values used by the LCCU, particularly for the DW4020.
You will make the registry keys manually using regedit. (Start->Run->Regedit)
Below you will find where in the registry to put the keys and what to name the keys. Navigate to the locations specified in the left pane, then in the right pane, right click and choose to create a "New" Dword value. Name them exactly as shown. Once they are there, double click on each and insert the value 15 (HEX) for the DW6000 or XXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXX. Once you've done that, exit regedit, re-boot. Your work is done.

| Hello pakyroatan and welcome to the BBR Satellite Forum.
Thanks for picking up on that. Your Hex value would be 40 or you can use the decimal and enter the recommended value of 64. Either way should get you the same result. -- SRS | Earthlink | Win2K SP4 | G11 | 1370 | ver. 4.0.3.9 | NO SP | Gateway .55 |

| reply to pakyroatan pakyroatan, your results will be subjective in nature. While your browsing speed will undoubtedly increase, speed test results won't be any different. The "tweak" is to improve browsing performance, not download speed. -- Why must I feel like that? Why must I chase the cat? Nothin' but the dog in me. |
