Trust me when I say if I wanted to bash you you'd know about it, and that wasn't a bash :P

The point is changing the acknowledgement packet receipts changes the download/upload speeds as you're sending more packets, or waiting longer for an ACK reply. Seeing online speed tests are based on packets it won't show much difference.

Pings lower as you're replying to every packet that's sent, not waiting for X amount to send. If you're replying to every packet you're increasing packet output XX fold. As I said above if you really want to decrease RTT per ACK, that's fine, just seems silly to increase load.

*shrugs* Anyway up to you :P I'm happy boxing as I am.

*EDIT - As an example, it's not different to using MSN but typing one word per line, instead of an entire sentence. Does it appear to them you're typign faster? Yes. Are you in reality typing faster, or just acknowledging receipt faster?
