tcp profile for heavy packet loss

I'm not sure any congestion control setting is going to help where there is 'heavy packet loss'. What's causing that loss?

 

 

You can modify the TCP Profile and reduce the number of retransmissions from the default of 8 to something lower but of course this means your application will have to handle the data loss. I think it's standard (i.e. in the TCP/IP standard and thus not configurable) for the time between each retransmission to be double that of the previous one, so a value of 4 for instance would probably result in retransmission after 1s, 2s, 4s and finally 8s.

 

 

You might want to investigate the other options in the TCP Profile as some of these might also be beneficial, however, I'd suggest you ultimately need to resolve the root cause of the packet loss.
