You need to do a Full reboot with every adjustment.
Please Note: In some cases you dont need to use every setting in the adjuster. To try it with less, blank out one setting at a time, rebooting in between.

These have been known to effect some DSL connections. If you see some minor issues, blank out these settings:

• MaxNormLookupMemory
• MaxFreeTcbs
• MaxHashTableSize
• FastSendDatagramThreshhold

and

• EnableFastRouteLookup » might interfere with other network settings.
