Network Configuration (XPS 730 Only)

Network Advanced Features

The NVIDIA Control Panel offers two tools to help you modify your network traffic: NVIDIA FirstPacket and TCP/IP acceleration.

You can access these tools via the NVIDIA Control Panel located in the Windows® Control Panel.

NVIDIA FirstPacket

NVIDIA FirstPacket lets you manage the traffic on your system, allowing you to more effectively manage and improve the performance of networked games and other applications that are sensitive to network delay (latency), such as Voice-over-IP (VoIP).

NVIDIA FirstPacket creates an additional transmit queue in the network driver so that network applications can share a limited resource. Based on user preference, NVIDIA FirstPacket can expedite transmission for user-approved network applications.
