Windows 10: Is there a way to disable the piggybacking of TCP ACKs?

Is there a way, in Windows 10 and/or Windows 11, to prevent the workstation from using a normal TCP segment one which bears stream data from ACKing previously received stream data from the other end? Essentially, I want all ACKs to be standalone ACKs which would typically result in an IP datagram of 40-80 bytes in length depending on the size of the TCP header and assuming a standard IP header length of 20 bytes? The reason I ask is because I've run into a scenario wherein a workstation is receiving an MSS of 1261 bytes during 3-way handshake, it is generating a 1301 byte IP packet whic

TCP timeout issue

I am using python socket programming to establish tcp/ip connection via ethernet cable. Via my program I am sending the packet and receiver should acks the packet within 10ms. The logging is done via wireshark. To check if my ack timeout works fine or not i want to make fail case to reduce ack timeout in my sender pc to 1ms so that retransmission occurs how to make this to work in windows? Because in windows how to set the retransmission and ack timeout?

 

Windows 10 - Extremely slow WIFI

Hi Joanne,

There are a lot of possible causes for this issue to occurred. And since
resetting your TCP/IP
did not work. We suggest that you
Reconfigure your TCP/IP
and check if there's any changes.
To do this, follow these steps:

• 
  Run
  Command Prompt
  as
  Administrator.
  
• 
  Run
  these following commands:
  
  • 
    netsh
    int
    tcp set heuristics
    disabled
    
  • 
    netsh
    int
    tcp
    set global
    autotuninglevel=disabled
    
  • 
    netsh
    int
    tcp set global
    rss=enabled
    

Let us know how it goes.

Regards.

 

Wifi piggyback?

Can someone piggyback my wifi and, if so, can this interfere with the wifi performance I'm getting?
