Howdy,
Congratulations on your new adventure in high-speed surfing! I found the
easiest way for me to set my machine for DSL was to go to www.dslreports.com
and get Dr.TCP, http://www.dslreports.com/front/drtcp.html  It is an easy to
adjust your registry without actually having to go into it. I have max MTU
at 1500, RWIN at 32767. I most always show as being at 1232kbps on their
speed tests.
This is a good site for testing, tweaking, and general info for DSL.

I now have an ADSL connection.  I would have though that MaxMTU, MSS, RWIN,
and TTL should be left at the same settings for a dial-up connection (576,
etc.), since at least the ones I understand should depend on the
capabilities
of the whole internet, not just my ISP's network.  However, someone on the
net
advised much higher settings.  Please advise.
