  <p>"Because many routers and firewalls do not properly implement TCP Window Scaling, it can cause a user's Internet connection to malfunction intermittently for a few minutes, then appear to start working again for no reason.</p>
  
  <p>There is also an issue if a firewall doesn't support the TCP extensions."</p>
  
  <p>As i understand, <strong>TCP Window Scalling</strong> bad influence on performance of the channel when many short connections (web).</p>
  
  <p>Disable <strong>TCP Window Scaling</strong> on Linux server, or not? </p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
