Enable IP Compression?

When reviewing a report on WXP made out by the Everest program, I notice that in the section Connection Attributes of my ISP there is a suggestion: Enable IP header compression to increase network speed. Would anyone know how I can do this, please? I've gone into my ISP provider details, including 'Advanced', and can't see such an option. Thank you.

 

This is only for modem/dial-up, and only if your modem supports V features, and only if your ISP supports the feature:

Disable/Enable IP Header Compression

You may experience issues logging on to your ISP if you are using IP header compression (also known as Van Jacobson, or VJ, header compression) and your ISP does not support this feature.

To enable/disable IP header compression, follow these steps:

1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Network and Internet Connections, and then click Network Connections.
2. Click your dial-up connection, and then click Change settings of this connection under Network Tasks.
3. On the Networking tab, click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), and then click Properties.
4. Click Advanced, and then click to clear/set the "Use IP header compression" check box.
5. Click OK.

 

Thanks, Bill. I think I'll leave well-enough alone! My broadband is fast enough as it is.
