5.2Improving Network Performance

The latency (delay) of a Powerline network is higher than that of an Ethernet network. Most operating systems have a default setting of the network latency based on Ethernet figures. To obtain the maximum performance using TCP traffic (FTP download, for example) the operating system has to be tuned to the new network conditions.

For improving the network performance, we provide scripts for Windows and Linux operating systems. The scripts can be found on the enclosed CD, in the folder scripts. The scripts will set the TCP window size to 512 kB.

With a Windows PC, simply double-click on the file tcpwin.reg, provided on the documentation CD in the “scripts“ folder. You can also run the script using the autorun feature on the CD.
