Back in the day, I did the 1 maxframe, but found it was very
limiting. I finally upped it to 4 then 5. Early on, memory in
TNC's was a real issue, however, this is handled by Jnos on a much
larger cpu. I typically had at least one node between me and my
connecting station. For the most part, the larger value helped
throughput .. It was most noticed when local users would connect
to download mail or larger files.<br>
<br>
My advice is to test values on your local area and see what makes
things faster.<br>
