For windows they had a registry setting in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VxD\MSTCP and when you changed the TCP Recieve Window setting to 32767 it supposedly made a difference in speed w/your cable modem. This made a difference in my windows machine, so i would like to do the same in my FreeBSD machine. Can you help me with this? Im running FreeBSD 3.2-Release w/2 nics (de0, and de1) I assume it is a setting in /etc/rc.conf.
