What is the best method to speed up a network? (Config Wise)
This is a discussion about What is the best method to speed up a network? (Config Wise) in the Windows Networking category; Are there some settings that can be changed to allow information to be sent/received more quickly. Anything would be appreciated. I was told there are some MTU settings that would make a difference. We use TCP/IP and have 5 systems running Win95 for a certain DOS app, 3 systems running Win2K Pro, and one running.

We use TCP/IP and have 5 systems running Win95 for a certain DOS app, 3 systems running Win2K Pro, and one running .. ugh .. WinME.
We also have broadband ADSL.
I am familiar with the registry and have no issues changing stuff manually.
Thanks!

Kill the users! Hey it's a change in configuration. The network latency improves, your in jail, and your boss he doesn't even care anymore. :x

Hey sounds good. I could even make my own company offering creative solutions to real problems . It could be called Postal Networking Services.

adding a domain controller can speed things up
instead of a random computer being the boss the DC is

Just adding a domain controller will not help network performance ...It's what you assign that domain controller to do that will speed up your performance. Such as making it a WINS server, which would definately speed up things for you ten fold....ecspecially with all them 9X clients 8) you have....
OP
Where can I get info on setting up a wins server? 10 fold sounds like a nice speed increase
