Well I am on 2meg now, and yeah it is low for long distance. But a few things I should mention, (a) I did try a few different values even as high as 256960. (b) I have never expected full speeds from the usa in 1 thread I am a realist. I cant even get 10mbit in 1 thread from ny 100mbit to redbus 100mbit. (c) most of the problems I have are affecting everything including uk servers and ntl speedtests which 64240 should be more then enough, I bet most of the people on here with better performance then me are probably on default rwin which is lower then 64240.
