which one? cable? DSL? leased line? dial-up(pre-paid or post-paid)?

 

if you feel youre connection is kinda slowwith your present connection... you can always tweak your registry to give a little bost on your windows performance...

I have a cable connection, but parang 56 k lang ang speed niya, how do I tweak the registry para mapabilis ang speed ng internet access ko, Im using windows 98..

 

can you explain in layman's term please, im not a techie like you guys... thanx..

ok here's a simple tweak version of cable connection...

before you start doing or changing anything, make sure to backup your registry... you might make a mistake and blame me for what will happen...

Add MaxMTU to your Registry

In Regedit go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\NetTrans<!--POST BOX-->0x

where 'x' is the number for your modem (you may see several numbers [0001, 0002, etc.] it seems to be safe to put this entry into each of them if you're not sure which one to use. You can also look through each and see which one holds your IP number of your modem.

 

Add MaxMTU as a New String Value

Give it a value of 1500

 

How To Determine Your ISP'S MTU

1500 MTU's is used by most ISP's using cable modem. The optimum MaxMTU is actually determined by you ISP, here's a way to determine the optimum MaxMTU setting.

Open a DOS Prompt window and enter the following command until you know exactly which is the largest packet size that doesn't get fragmented:

C:\> ping -f -l [packetSize] [www.localisp.com]

where [packetSize] is the size of the data packet you will send (only use values between 0 and 1500) and [www.localisp.com] is the URL of your ISP.

 

The biggest value that does not give you the error "Packet needs to be fragmented, but DF set" will either be the MTU of your ISP, or their MTU-28 (without the header), depending on the server settings.

 

Windows will then automatically set the MaxMSS setting to (MaxMTU - 40), which is 1460, you could add the value yourself too.

 

Add DefaultRcvWindow (RWin) to your Registry

In Regedit go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\MSTCP

Add DefaultRcvWindow as a New String Value

Give it a value of (Win95 64240), (Win98 372300)

 

Add DefaultTTL (Time-to-Live [TTL]) to your Registry

Windows uses a default TTL value lower than the rest of the computing world. If a Web site is too far away for the TTL you can't talk to it at all. The connection attempt to the site times out. If you can talk to the site at all then any timeouts after that are not related to the TTL.

In Regedit go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\MSTCP

Add DefaultTTL as a New String Value

Give it a value of 128

 

Add BSDUrgent as a New String Value

Give it a value of 1

 

Add PMTUDiscovery as a DWORD decimal value

Give it a value of 0 (00000000)

 

Add PMTUBlackHoleDetect as a DWORD decimal value

Give it a value of 0 (00000000)

Close Regedit and reboot.

 

There are also some settings that help speed up Web Browsing

In Regedit go to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\

Add MaxConnectionsPer1_0Server as a DWORD decimal value

Give it a value of 10 (00000010)

Add MaxConnectionsPerServer as a DWORD decimal value

Give it a value of 8 (00000008)

 

The following registry tweaks are for Windows 98 and above ONLY:

In Regedit go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\MSTCP

Add Tcp1323Opts as a New String Value

Give it a value of 3

 

In Regedit go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\MSTCP\Parameters

Add SackOpts as a New String Value

Give it a value of 1

 

Add MaxDupAcks as a DWORD decimal value

Give it a value of 3 (00000003)

 

The following registry tweaks are for Windows 98SE ONLY:

This deals with optimizing Internet Connection Sharing in Win98SE.

In Regedit go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\ICSharing\Settings\General\

Add/Change the String Value internetMTU

Give it a value of 1500 (if this was your MTU discovery amount in the first part of this exercize)

 

System.ini Network Card Tweak

In Windows 9x, you can reserve specific amounts of RAM for specific IRQs (Interrupt Requests), which serves as a buffer to allow more stable operation of your device. Adding a 4Mb buffer to your Network Card's IRQ would ensure good overall performance and increase throughput with broadband Internet connections, such as DSL and Cable Modems.

 

Reserving RAM for your Network Adapter might prove very useful, especially during CPU intensive tasks, or while gaming online. For those with 500MHz or slower processors and 128Mb or less RAM, this tweak might show noticeable results at all times, including faster displaying of web pages and higher throughput. Even with fast processors you will get better overall performance, including smoother stream video, better transfers anywhere from 0 to 10%, with more noticeable results during faster transfers. Another good reason for using this tweak would be if you have a PCI NIC sharing IRQs with another device.

 

Step 1 - Find your Network Card's IRQ

In order to add the entry to your System.ini file, you'd first have to find your NIC's IRQ.

 

Right-click on My Computer icon on your Desktop, then left-click on Properties (a shortcut for that would be to press the 'Windows' + 'Pause' keys). Navigate to Device Manager and double-click on Computer. Under "View Resources" you will find a list of IRQs, each with description of the device that's using it. Note the IRQ number used by your Network Adapter.

 

Adding the entry to System.ini

Once you've found the IRQ of your Network Card, you need to reserve some RAM for its use, by adding an entry to the System.ini file. You can edit the file in any text editor, however the easiest way is to use Windows' built in "System Configuration Editor".

 

Navigate to Start > Run and type sysedit. Find the [386enh]Section in the System.ini file and add Irq[n]=4096 under it, where [n] is the IRQ number of your NIC and 4096 is the amount of RAM you want to reserve in Kbytes. i recommend using 4096, however you can experiment with different values if you want. Save changes in the file, exit and reboot for changes to take effect.

 

Note: If you choose to try different values, keep in mind that reserving too much RAM for your NIC will decrease the amount of RAM available for applications, while reserving too little might not give the desired effect.

 

Additional Thoughts

The only negative effect of the System.ini IRQ tweak is that it will reduce the amount of RAM available for running applications a bit, by reserving some specifically for your Network Card's use. The gain in performance usually outweighs the negative effect by far, considering any Computer with 32Mb of RAM or more.

 

Keep in mind that if you add hardware to your system the IRQ of the Network Adapter might change, in which case you will need to modify the setting in System.ini.

 

In systems with multiple NICs, you might want to add the setting for both IRQs. Also, you could reserve RAM for other IRQs if you wish, just use common sense and don't forget it reduces the amount of RAM available for running applications.

 

If you are using an USB device, it does not have a specific IRQ, however you can try adding the entry using the IRQ of the USB Controller.

 

For internal Cable Modems, you'd have to add the entry using the IRQ of your modem, rather than the IRQ of a Network Card.

 

I'm sorry guys. This took so much of the space. But i hope this helped out speed things up a bit.

Actually am mulling the idea.. kaya lang sasabihin nyo naman na hanggang organize lang ako at di naman ako sumisipot....hehehehe... pero ngayon promise na talaga sisiput na po... dami lang talaga trabaho... kakalunod na. so kelan kaya magandang time?.. pwede kaya sama muna tayo sa Videoke EB ni Leslie sa Sangkalan? sa March 12 na yun...

Pinatext kita kay leslie nung Sangkalan EB di ka pa rin dumating.... ...... dyan na lang kaya sa office mo natin gawin yung lawyers' EB para wala ka ng kawala sa amin at sa trabaho!

 

Kidding aside, ok lang panyero.......ganyan talaga buhay natin....service above self....but sometimes we need to f**k back! :evil: :evil: :evil:

Panero! e di mag arganize uli tayo ng Videoke EB sometime within the next few weeks para me chance maka attend si Bossing Butsoy. Let's make it into a lawyer's EB na rin para magkakilala lahat ang lawyers ng MTC.

 

Mga Panyero's:

 

Oo nga e...di kasi dinala ni Leslie si Dina bonavie... hehehehe anyway pwede videoke eb ulit sa sangkalan... may discount ako dyan... dami kasi problema ng ibang tao na pinuproblema natin... ganito talaga trabaho ng mga panyero's

 

Meet goodboy and Bizman kanina sa Racks J. Vargas over merienda.. i popost ang next lawyers EB ni Goodboy anytime.. tentative plan is April 4 or 5 pero kung gusto nyo we can have next singing EB ngayon monday or teusday bago ako mag out of town on 19,20 and 21March. kung sino lang pupunta.. sa Sangkalan din..

[haragan]

Mga Sir,

 

anybody here who is specializing in civil cases such as legal separation or annulment..I just need some information..thanks..

[freelicker]

Tourista (in reply to your questions).

 

1) Normal rape cases are not really non-bailable. It becomes none bailable if it is considered as a heinous crime (rape with murder, rape by a band, rape of minors, etc.). But when there was no qualifying circumstance to make it a heinouos crime, it remains bailable.

 

2) There are no legal precautions to protect yourself from a charge of rape (especially pag binaliktad ka ng girl) other than making sure that the intercourse is not accompanied by force. You just have to make sure that circumstances would make it appear that there is no force to the sexual act. Example, having the girl drive the car to check in the motel or having the girl check in sa hotel for you.

 

3) There is no such thing as a pre-sexual agreement.

 

4) Hope it does enlighten people.

[freelicker]

Mga Sir,

Bossing,

 

I know something about the topic but I wouldn't consider myself a specialist on it (having handled only a couple of legal separation and only one annulment case). I haven't lost any case at this point, at least before the Supreme Court came out with its ruling on Psychological Incapacity. But if you think I would be able to help, feel free to ask. If I can't answer, I'm sure there are others out there who would be able to help.

[Roubaix]

Mga attorney, greetings !

 

1. Are all rape charges alleged by women 18 yr & over, non bailable ? or may exception ?

 

All rape cases (female) have the minimum punishment of reclusion perpetua (40 years). That means bail is not a right. But technically, its still bailable. But unlike other crimes with a lesser penalty, there must be a bail hearing. The only exception to being lower than reclusion perpetua is when rape is done without intercourse like inserting anything in the mouth or anal orifice, hence men can be victims of rape. (that is true!)

 

2. What are the legal precautions to take, when having consenting sex w/women 18 & over, para hindi nila baliktarin and knock you over with an allegation of rape afterward?

 

If the women is 18 or over, make sure that it is consensual. A date preceding would justify consent. But remember, a no is a no. To be precise, make sure the ?NO? is before insertion (for the ladies out there).

 

3. Puede ba ang signed pre-sex statement, ala pre-nuptial, attesting to their free will and volition to have sex ?

 

If that were the case, I can sue every lousy MP or escort girl who gave me a lousy popoy. Just think about it, if one violated the pre-sex agreement, can you go to court and sue?

 

4. Marami sana ang ma enlighten nito, thank you in advance .

 

Just remember, if you hear the word ?NO?, listen and stop. It?s not worth the time in jail. This part is true, YOU WILL GET RAPED IN JAIL! Your butt is open season. Your new S.O. will belong to the Sigue Sigue Sputnik gang.

 

If you get caught, you will spend thousand if not millions in legal fees or bribe money. Its better to spend 5K on a high class escort girl rather than a night in ?your ass is mine? city jail.

[firealessandra]

Roubaix, yup that means more kisses but I believe templar is right. It's not the quantity, it's the quality.

[junnp]

boss junnp, how about on a dial-up connection, how do i tweak my registry? thanks in advance.

thanks guys... glad i could help...

 

ok then, here's a modem version for the tweak... its almost similar with the cable tweak... again, before you start doing or changing anything, make sure to backup your registry. you might make a mistake and i end up being blamed for your misfortune...

 

DISCLAIMER: i am posting this only as a tip for anyone who wants to try and explore. i can only attest to what i have tested and personal experience on this matter. i will not be held liable for any damage or whatsoever that may occur in your computer while doing this tip.

 

DIAL UP MODEM CONNECTION TWEAK

 

Changing the MaxMTU and other Network Settings

These settings are for analog modems. (Dialup Modems)

Before you begin you might want to install Client for Microsoft Networks. This will give you the advantage of automatically logging onto your ISP when ever you run a program that requires the Internet. There is improved support for TCP/IP throughput. (The way in which your MTU packets are sized before sending)

 

To Install Client for Microsoft Networks

• In Control Panel, double-click Network, and then click Add.
  
• In the Select Network Component Type dialog box, double-click Client.
  
• In the Select Network Client dialog box, click Microsoft in the Manufacturers list, and then click Client for Microsoft Networks in the Network Clients list. Click OK.
  
• You now have Client for Microsoft Networks in the Installed Components window. Left click on Client For Microsoft Networks, left click Properties tab. Place a dot in Logon and Restore Network Connection. Click OK.
  
• Now left click on Dial-up Adapter, and Properties. Enable Point to Point IP should read "Yes". IP Packet Size (if you are running windows 98 on an ISP), in the drop down box, should have Small. Click OK
  
• Now left click on TCP/IP in the Components window, and Properties. A dialog box pops up telling you that you have requested to change your TCP/IP settings. Click OK and carry on.
  
• On the DNS tab, Disable DNS Configuration
  
• On the Wins Resolution tab, Disable Wins Resolution
  
• On the IP Address tab, this will depend on if your ISP Automatically assigns you an IP Address when you log onto the server or not. Most ISP's do Automatically Assign one. Place a dot in the Obtain an IP address automatically if this is the case for your particular ISP.
  
• Go back to the Configuration tab and in the Primary Network Logon slot use the drop arrow to select Windows Logon. Click OK
  
• Now the program might ask you for the Win98 cd so it can find certain files to complete your network settings. If you are updated with your Internet Explorer Updates you might have later versions then what your computer is asking for so instead of letting it look at your Win98 CD for the files, direct the search to your C:\Windows\System folder or C:\Windows. If it doesn't find them in either of these then let it have its way and into the CD for the files.
  
• Answer Yes to any questions that first states that A File That is Being Copied Is Older Then The One Already in Your System. Do You Want To Keep This File?
  
• You will be prompted to restart Windows. Click OK.
  
• Use Internet Explorer to connect to the Internet for the first time and be sure to put the checkmarks into the Save Password and Automatically Connect.
  
• If you have a problem connecting, call your Internet Service Provider and they will help you out with getting online. It won't be anything to hard. Just some little misconfiguration.
  

Now you can carry on with setting up your connection values for optimum throughput.

 

WARNING: Backup your Registry before we get started.

 

There are four network settings that can be configured so when dialing to an ISP, you should get somewhat greater throughput.

They are the MaxMTU, MaxMSS and DefaultRcvWindow, and DefaultTTL

 

To find your MaxMTU setting here is a little text to run in DOS Prompt

The optimum MaxMTU is actually determined by you ISP, here's a way to determine the optimum MaxMTU setting. Open a DOS Prompt window and enter the following command until you know exactly which is the largest packet size that doesn't get fragmented:

C:\> ping -f -l [PacketSize] [www.localisp.com] ( type this without the brackets and don't forget the spaces) where [packetSize] is the size of the data packet you will send (only use values between 0 and 576) and [www.localisp.com] is the URL of your ISP.

 

e.g.: ping -f -l 576 www.netwatchers.org (hit enter) (before the 576 is not a number one. it is an "el")

 

The biggest value that does not give you the error "Packet needs to be fragmented, but DF set" will either be the MTU of your ISP, or their MTU-28 (without the header), depending on the server settings.

TIP: if the number you arrive at is 548 then your MTU is set to 576. (576 minus 28 for header) Your ISP is including header in its Maximum Transmitted Units.

 

Windows will then automatically set the MaxMSS setting to (MaxMTU - 40), which is 536, or you could add the value yourself too.

 

Setting the MaxMTU and MaxMSS

Start Regedit

Go to Hkey_Local_Machine/System/CurrentControlset/Services/Class/netTrans/000x

(where x is your particular network adapter binding.)

Right click on the right panel

Select New / String Value

Type in MaxMTU

Double click on it and enter then the number you want. The usual change is to 576

Similarly, you can add MaxMSS and give it a value of 536

 

Setting DefaultRcvWindows and DefaultTTL

Start Regedit

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/CurrentControlSet/Services/VxD/MSTCP

Add a new string DefaultRcvWindow and give it a value of 2144

Add a new string DefaultTTL and give it a value of 128

 

These are for Win 98 only

Start Regedit

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/CurrentControlSet/Services/VxD\MSTCP

Add a new dword Tcp1323Opts and give it a value of 3

Add a new string SackOptsand give it a value of 1

Add a new string BSDUrgent and give it a value of 1

 

Setting Com Port Speed

The Windows default Com Port speed is set very low to prevent quite old modems running into problems. This slows downloading - data passes through the Port far too slowly.

 

Increase the Port speed in Device Manager

Right-click My Computer and then select:

Properties / Device Manager / Ports (COM & LPT)

 

Select the Port you use, and then Properties / Port Settings

 

28,800K modem Use 38,400 or 57,600 bits per second

33,600K modem Use 57,600 or 115,200 bps

56,000K modem Use 115,200 or 230,400 bps

 

Note: Internal modems should also be configured in the Modems applet in Control Panel and Dialup Networking in My Computer.

 

Stop Modem Time-Outs

If the modem times out during long delays, file transfers or Web downloads, you can reset the timeout variable. From Regedit, open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/CurrentControlSet/Services/Class/Modem/000x/Settings (where x is your modem number). Double-click on Inactivity Timeout and change the number in the brackets to the amount of minutes you want the inactivity time to allow. For example, enter S19=<30> for a 30-minute toleration before timing out or 120 for a 2 hour timeout toleration.

 

Hope this helps a bit... Cheers!
