Increasing the TCP/IP window size under Windows
If the actual transmission speed over a DSL connection is significantly lower
than the maximum specified by the DSL provider, there are very few potential
error sources with your own equipment.
A typical problem arises when a Windows PC simultaneously sends and recei-
ves large quantities of data over an asynchronous connection. This situation
can severly impact download speeds. The cause of this is the RCP/IP receive
windows size as defined in the Windows operating system. The default value
is too small for asynchronous connections.
Instructions for increasing the windows size are available in the Knowledge-
Base in the Support area of the LANCOM Systems Web site (www.lancom.eu).

booting in the WLAN cause the LANCOM to connect to the Internet.
To prevent Windows XP computers from automatically synchronising the time,
right- click on the time Change time/date Internet time off.
