network driver that optimises data through
Greetings for everybody.
When I yet Windows was useful, there was a program what helped with the traffic control of the internet. I received it now an advertisement letter that the newest version appeared. I would like to discover that this advanced application like this is in Ubuntu containers? From the program exact description here legible:

cFosSpeed v6.00

cFosSpeed is a network driver that optimises data transfer through
Traffic Shaping. This technology allows cFosSpeed to minimise ping
times while ensuring maximum data throughput and Voice-over-IP quality.
For more information see http://
The most important features about this version are:
-.-.-.-.-.-
* Decisive Traffic Shaping improvements:
cFosSpeed Traffic Shaping now also optimizes mobile connections.
UMTS, WCDMA, CDMA 2000, etc. have highly varying ping times.
Under normal conditions this can lead to high latency and/or
low throughput rates. Therefore cFosSpeed determines the "normal"
ping time and its statistical deviation. These additional statistics
are used for the speed regulation in Traffic Shaping, so that
the transfer rate will remain high, even if ping times are higher
for a short time. This gets the maximum out of mobile connections.
For fixed-line connections, like DSL and cable, cFosSpeed uses
these statistics for sharper limits of the allowed ping time
and can therefore reduce the latency by ca. 20 msec. The effect
particularly shows with today's fast Internet connections, for
example with games, VoIP and today's Web 2.0 pages with their
frequent and small HTTP packets (interactive traffic).
By improving the ping engine cFosSpeed can now be used with
connections which already employ other prioritization techniques,
such as ACK- and ping-prioritizing routers. The benefit is
a drastically reduced latency, as well as cFosSpeed's unique
RX-shaping and protocol-
a single data stream can congest the connection and impair
the quality of other applications.
The TCP window auto-tuning used in Windows Vista and Windows 7
accelerates the regulation of RX-shaping, because the
initial TCP windows size has far lower (more realistic) values
and therefore does not need to be corrected so heavily. A luxury
only available when you already have nice, low latency.
* The new status windows now illustrate how cFosSpeed Traffic
Shaping works. The "ping variance" display informs you about
the current ping time variation and the reliability of the
statistical data. These statistics will be re-evaluated every
few minutes, as for mobile connection these values can change
quickly during movement (travelling) or by changing
utilization of radio cells.
The "Traffic Shaping Indicator" notifies you whenever cFosSpeed
re-orders packets (which is one of the most important actions of
Traffic Shaping). "Small blip - big change". The ping time is
another indicator by which you can verify that the reaction
time is nice and low even when your connection is heavily used.
In addition the configurable real-time analysis shows which
protocols and programs currently use which amount of bandwidth.
* Further Traffic Shaping optimizations:
Net Talk is a new feature, which allows you to use Traffic
Shaping with several PCs in a LAN. With Net Talk all PCs
inform each other about their respective send and receive
statistics and use this information to control Traffic
Shaping far more precisely. With simultaneous use of
the ping variance statistics, it can help to detect rising
ping times quickly and then counter it.
Based on the shared statistics Traffic Shaping works more
accurately, since every member of the LAN knows about the traffic
of all others.
The priority queues have been optimized (reduced) with regard
to Compound TCP, now used in Windows Vista and Windows 7.
Compound TCP is designed to detect early congestion and then
reduce the send speed. Now cFosSpeed and Compound TCP work
hand in hand: Compound TCP ensures a fast maximum sending
speed while cFosSpeed meanwhile keeps the latency low.
* New NDIS 6 driver:
cFosSpeed now contains a NDIS 6 driver for Vista. It automatically
switches to NDIS 6.20 for Windows 7 and supports all the
"speed-features" available in Microsoft's new network architecture,
like dispatch-level tracking, data copy avoidance, early packet
classification, etc. These features reduce the CPU load caused
by network activity.
The new NDIS 6.20 driver also supports the Windows 7
Mobile Broadband Platform, the new driver architecture for
mobile connection sticks.
* WLAN: Our tests have shown that with only moderate signal
strength not only the transfer rate can by degrade 10% or more, but
also the ping time begins to vary more than 50 msec, depending on
WLAN utilisation. In this case cFosSpeed's new ping variance
detection also helps to keep transfer speeds and pings in comfortable
ranges.
* The new "Adapter Info" dialog makes all important parameters
of the network adapters visible, especially for WLAN and WWAN
(Mobile Broadband). For WLAN cFosSpeed also produces a channel
recommendation. cFosSpeed calculates it by the number and signal
strength of other WLAN access points in the vicinity and then
selects the channel with the currently lowest frequency utilisation.
You can use this as a hint to switch your WLAN access point to
this channel, minimizing the risk of packet collisions.
* New dialogs for the configurable TX limits for individual
programs and protocols.
* The new DivX webplayer as well as Teredo for IPv6 tunneling
(for example used by Bittorrent) are now detected by cFosSpeed's
layer-7 analysis and prioritized accordingly.
* Support for the Microsoft's security functions
Data Execution Prevention (DEP) und Address space layout
randomization (ASLR) for protections against attacks.
* Tons of other improvements and bugfixes, for details see
