Ativa Pro - The Internet Bandwidth Monitor

Speed Up Internet With Accelerator Software

Increasing connection speeds is not as difficult as it seems. We have had a LOT of success getting speed boost gains with internet accelerator software solutions. These speed programs constantly perform optimizing routines that will dramatically speed up everything online from surfing to downloading to retrieving email.

• webROCKET - internet speed optimizer (increase your Internet connection speed up to 200%!)
• ActiveSpeed - Accelerate your connection with ActiveSpeed's patent-pending technology
• Turbo-Surfer - Up to 220% modem speed increase

Ativa Pro - the internet bandwidth monitor. Ativa Pro will help you maximize your online time and increase your net speed. Ativa contains a powerful multi-functional web monitor designed to accurately gather layer upon layer of valuable web information. New features include auto email retrieval, auto PC clock update, ISP time monitor, bandwidth notifications, detailed performance analysis, networking 'tweaker' and comprehensive connection reporting. The three-dimensional bar, pie and line graphs provide detailed, at-a-glance indications of connection history and performance. Real-time bandwidth graphs, comprehensive reporting, built-in DUN tweaker and FREE lifetime updates all add up to make Ativa Pro a great piece of software. And it looks good too!

• Real-time graph, fully configurable with powerful monitoring engine
• Auto check & retrieve of email, specify how often and leave Ativa to do the rest
• Auto update of your PC's internal clock - simply choose from a range of internet time servers
• Enhance your DUN settings and increase your speed with the deluxe built in 'tweaker'
• Review your connection performance with the advanced reporting utilities
• Instant notifications - the when the where and the why all when you need to know

At the heart of Ativa Pro is a powerful internet monitor, and we used the best - the Ativa multi-functional web monitor, designed to accurately gather layer upon layer of web information.  Then we added new features like auto email retrieval, auto PC clock update, ISP monitor, bandwidth level notifications, performance analysis, and comprehensive connection reporting to make Ativa's analysis even greater.

Built-in DUN Tweaker for even faster net connections.

Ativa comes complete with a fully configurable Dial-up Networking 'Tweaker'. Fine-tune your system and optimize your internet connection with a fully loaded range of options covering: MaxMTU (Maximum Transmission Unit), RWIN (Receive Window), TTL (Time To Live), PMTU Auto Detect, PMTU Black Hole Detect, and Session Keep Alive.

• real-time graphical monitor
• email check & retrieve
• dialup settings tweaker
• PC clock update
• auto connect & disconnect
• event notifications
• application launcher
• 'keep-alive' auto ping
• comprehensive reporting
• performance analyzer

By optimizing the MaxMTU & MaxMSS settings, together with the RWIN and TTL settings you can increase dialup modem connection reliability and performance by as much as 200%.

What is the MTU and MSS?

MTU stands for Maximum Transmission Unit and it defines the maximum size of a packet that can be transferred in one frame over a network.

MSS or Maximum Segment Size defines how much actual data can put in that packet, and it should be a slightly smaller value than MTU to allow for packet addressing and other information.

Why do the default values need to be changed?

By default Windows hardcodes the value of MTU to equal 1500 bytes. This value is adequate for normal LAN networking, but when you're connecting to the Internet with a modem this value is too high. This can show itself in different ways, the most noticeable affect is less than peak performance.

By adjusting this value to more closely match the requirements of a modem Internet connection, major performance gains can be achieved.

Optimizing the DefaultRcvWindow & DefaultTTL Settings

The optimization of RcvWindow and DefaultTTL, together with the other registry settings - MaxMTU and MaxMSS can speed up TCP/IP modem networking connections (eg. Internet connections).

RWIN (Receive WINdow) is the buffer your machine waits to fill with data before attending to whatever other TCP transactions are occurring on the other threads and sockets WinSock has open while a connection is in progress.

TTL (Time To Live) defines how long a packet can stay active before being discarded. The default value is '32'
