Hello Evomunk, and welcome to Vista Forums.

You just need to open a elevated command prompt instead. (Run as administrator)

Re: Auto Tuning - TCP/IP receive level

Hi All, Firstly let me say great site, this speed up vista guide has been awesome.

Anyway on to my issue. After verifying my auto-tune setting at highly restricted and then going into command prompt with elevated mode, I have attempted to change my autotune setting to restricted, off etc, after entering commands specified and getting the "ok" and rebooting it still comes up as highly restricted. I am running home premium x64. I'm on ADSL2+ if that makes any difference. I managed to turn on chimney setting.

Hello Prothall, and welcome to Vista Forums.

You might see if setting it to normal first, then restrict may allow it not be high.

Hope this helps,

Re: Auto Tuning - TCP/IP receive level

I'm noticing a problem where I receive 35-50MB/sec over my intranet over 1gigabit but it sometimes slows down to 8MB/sec and sustains for the same test tasks.

If I reboot speed goes to 35-50 again.. Sometimes even logging out does it. I've noticed other people say they hit a 8MB/sec limit as well. Has anyone figured out what is limiting or causing it?

I'm loading an image sequence off of a server using a program to test throughput.

I've experimented with the different RSS settings and disabling it and it doesn't seem to make a difference. I also tried chimney offload but in netstat it isn't offloading anything.

Thanks!
