Is there any algorithm helps to improve the speed of connection in a LAN?

1. There is no algorithm to improve the speed of LAN.\n2. U can devise ur own methods to improve traffic on LAN.\n   a. Use gigabit ethernet (end of all issues)\n   b. Control ur traffic by identifying it's pattrens. Then introduce a seperate switch or VLAN for particular stations with heavy traffic.\n   c. If u r using a hub or coax on ur network ...u should better stop thinking about improving their speed they are as well as dead.

Here's the following reason for slow transmission speeds.\n\n1) Poor connection between you & the server you're connecting to.  Sometimes a network hub goes down & your connection has to be re-routed on lesser-used hubs as a slower speed.\n\nIf a key network hub (pretty much within 5 hops of your connection, if you're using a router) goes down, it can severely cripple (if not kill) the connection for everybody that uses it.\n\n2) You're connecting during "Internet Rushhour".  Within the US, it's normally from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM Eastern Time (which covers the noon hour for the major 4 time zones in the US).  This is when most of the computers are online.\n\n3) Network congestion on the server.  There's just too many people trying to get onto the network at one time or too many users are download from the server.\n\n4) Local network congestion.  This occurs when you're sharing an internet connection with others & a lot of traffic going on locally.  This may be due to a lot of audio / video streams going on while you're doing lower-bandwidth activities (like web-surfing or downloading stuff)\n\n5) Unwanted Network users.  This is possible with unsecured WiFi routers as practically anybody in range will be able to connect to it.  Unwanted users can cause local network congestion, but may be hard to notice since these users can come & go whenever they please.\n\n6) Shared Bandwidth.  If you're on a Satellite or Cable connection, you're sharing bandwidth with others (like your neighbors).  If there's too many people using the same connection at the same time, the connection speed for everybody slows down (this is similar to issue #4).\n\n7) Incorrect Bandwidth Capping.  While this is highly unlikely, it's possible that your ISP incorrectly configured your broadband modem & you're getting stiffed with a slower connection.\n\n============================================\n\nBesides issues #5 & 7, there's nothing much you can do about it.\n\nFor Issue #5, it can be remedied by securing your WiFi router through various ways (WEP / WPA encryption, MAC filtering & disabling SSID broadcasting).\n\nFor Issue #7, you'll probably want to check with your ISP to ensure that the bandwidth caps are properly set.\n\nFor Issue #4, you could try to control how others use the internet connection...  but they'll most likely blow you off unless you can control the router(s).

If you already have an Ethernet connection, then just buy a Wireless Bridge. You may need to also buy a LAN Switch (to allow you to plug in as well.) \nHave a look at the price of both, as it may be cheaper to buy a new Modem with both Wired and Wireless connections.\n\nAs for the connection, You should not see any slow down at your wired end . The wireless connection, will be slightly slower but not by much!

im using throttle its really magnificent\nit makes ur dial-up speed like a ADSL(200 more)\ntry it from http://www.throttle.com

An 11Mbps Ethernet bridge is enough.  That is quite fast :).

You may be able to get a little bit more speed by adjusting the Maximum Transmitable Unit (MTU) size for the TCP/IP stack used by your operating system.  This is usually set for LAN (Local Area Network) connectivity, but can be adjusted to get better performance over internet connections.  You can search for "MTU Adjustment" as well as the name of your operating system in order to find sites that may have utilities for you to do this easily.\n\nDo note: your download speeds are also limited by the available bandwith which might be regulated by the remote site.  Some servers specifically limit the amount of bandwidth that they use to serve files and information, so that they can transmit to several different clients at once.  Just because you may be receiving a file at 20k/s from one site doesn't mean that you could not also be receiving another file at a different site simultaneously with the same or higher speed.\n\nAlso, DSL can be limited by your provider.  Some of them charge a premium for higher bandwidth speeds.  You need to see what your provider gives you as a maximum.

I searched for "free bandwidth test" on Yahoo! and this was the very first result:\n\nhttp://www.bandwidthplace.com/speedtest/

you have a slow connection or some other problem that is causing a bottleneck

Freeware only solutions?  Well, I have a couple, but if the settings or problems aren't there that normally cause the reason for slow-down in internet speeds, they won't do much in the end.\n\nFirst off, check for spyware and other software that uses up bandwidth.  Spybot S&D is my recommended choice for this.\n\nIf you want to mess with the various TCP/IP optimizations and possible DNS archiving, try looking through various Freeware downloads from PCWorld.com in their Downloads section.  Webcelerator is an example of such freeware software(released 2002).  If you are using older OSes like Win95 to WinME, it may add minor performance but nothing for certain.  I would not advise using such software on more recent OSes like XP, but thats out of inexperience with any changes they may have incorporated since I haven't bothered with those settings on XP myself yet.

Hey Pal,\n\nThere is software which is called NETLIMITER :\nwww.netlimiter.com\n\nIts very very very useful for managing your bandwidth.\n\nCiao,

No.  You're at the mercy of the bandwidths that are being used at the time.   Sometimes there is more traffic which will make it slower and other times you are using it at a time when not that many people are on so it will be faster.\n\nHope that helps.

TCP/IP is more efficient and will be faster than IPX/SPX/NetBIOS, but that might not be what you should be looking at first.\n\nDo you have the dual ports configured as a team, and if so, what type of team?  Are you using a switch or a hub between the two servers and how is that configured?  What are the speeds you are getting? \n\nYou want to use link aggregation so the two ports act as one big port.  You best option is 802.3ad dynamic trunking, which your cards support.  The key is that your switch has to support this as well and it needs to be appropriately configured.

1. Check up the distance between your location and the \nservice provider.  You will get the maximum speed if it \nwithin 3 to 3.5 KMs.  the copper connectivity should be pacca and the ohmic value must be within limits(600 ohms is\nstandard one)\n    2. Increase the RAM value in your computer.\n    3. Try and compare at non-busy hour, because it works\non sharing system.

Go here to test your connection speed: http://www.internetfrog.com/mypc/speedtest/\n\nI will assume that your set is malware free and therefore the slowdown could be due to non-optimal settings. If so, download SG TCP Optimizer 2.0.1 from here: \nhttp://www.speedguide.net/downloads.php \nand run it to get the required optimum settings for your PC.\n\n\n***AND THE FINAL MIRACLE.. YES THERE IS SOFTWARE THAT DOES THAT!!!!***

Your connection to the Access Point is 20 Mbps. Whatever that access point is connected to the internet is the bottleneck (like the dsl modem). So if you are at 20 Mb and the connection to the inetrnet is 768Kbps, then you effective speed would be 768Kbps. TX
