Best FreeTCP setting tweaker

When we were searching for solid ways to tweak our Modem performance, we came across a brilliant TCP tweaker program. Its name is TCPOptimizer. It is a product of SpeedGuide.net. The best thing about this product is that it is FREE.

Normally, we need to tweak one of the TCP settings called MaxMTU. Tweaking it manually is a cumbersome process. TCPOptimizer makes life easier by tweaking it automatically.

This is how the product has been introduced by SpeedGuide:
The program can aid both the novice and the advanced user in tweaking related TCP/IP parameters in the Windows Registry, making it easy to tune your system to the type of Internet connection used. The tool uses advanced algorithms, and the bandwidth*delay product to find the best TCP Window for your specific connection speed. It provides for easy tuning of all related TCP/IP parameters, such as MTU, RWIN, and even advanced ones like QoS and ToS/Diffserv prioritization. The program works with all current versions of Windows, and includes additional tools, such as testing average latency over multiple hosts, and finding the largest possible packet size (MTU).
