Hi Jack,
>is it possible in NT (and 95/98) to increase the window size,
Yes. Check out these Microsoft techdocs:
Q182108 - Windows Sockets 2
Q158474 - Win95 TCP/IP registry settings
Q120642 - WinNT TCP/IP registry settings
>Is the new win98 stack improved?
Yes... but you can also install Windows Sockets 2 on a
Win95 box.
>Are there better/cheaper stack's available?
Trumpet's new stack has just come out from beta testing, but I
don't know if it's implementation is TCP-SAT friendly.
>(getting 50kbit/s from NT to 95 on a 20mb sat.channel because
>of the return phone line is not what i had in mind
Max out the window size to 64k and you'll get better performance
for large file downloads.
Hope that helps.
