You need to check if your connection suddenly goes slow because this is often the issue, though some routers seem to cause it more than others. Win7 appears to be less judgemental, and I've not seen this over sensative behaviour from it so far. A nice improvment.

Hi there, I know windows Vista automatically changes TCP window sizes and mtu sizes etc automatically to 'tune' the connection.
Do you have any idea how you can check it's current settings and switch things off on etc . I don't actually have Vista but I can see this as being a useful way of finding out a little bit about a machine I'm working with - and as I'm lazy, asking you will save me having to find out myself :p
