I got this from another forum but was wondering if it works on the TMO Wing.

"Windows Mobile 6.1. I went into with resco registry editior and changed HKLM\Comm\Tcpip\Parms and changed the TimerWheelSize to Value of 5 and soft reset via software reset. (Like Psshutxp)"

Post claims it doubles your Internet Browsing Speed on the phone.

????


Wondering what this setting is. On my Wing it was set to 11. I changed mine to 5 just to test. I will see over the next few days if its faster.

Anyone know?


Please Advise


Thanks!

I was noticing faster speeds after changing those settings... but then I couldn't connect to the internet or gsm. Don't know if that's a coincidence... but I changed it back using the network wizard and I got internet/phone back.

I guess I'll stick to the stock settings, but it was faster with the changed reg values.

Okay I fooled with the phone today at work. Does not seem any faster to me. Even seems kind of slow, not that PIE was real fast before. I will keep these setting for a few more days and see.

Still wondering what these setting are exactly and what changing them really does. ????

Tested again today. It doesn't seem to harm anything to use these settings but next time I Hard Reset or Flash a new rom, I don't think I'll bother to change this setting again. Just some feedback from my experience.

No real difference in speed that I can see.
