event 4226 tcpip.sys

[Pyr0]

has anybody figured out how to fix the event 4226 errors

TCP/IP has reached the security limit imposed on the number of concurrent TCP connect attempts.

i tried the LvlLord fix, but it sez it can't access the file,

any ideas?

Yeah I'm in need of this too now Luckily the uxtheme.dll patch was easy to find but I can't find this one anywhere yet!

Changing the maximum concurrent half-open connections on x64 platforms

Note: It appears people are having trouble with this therefore I suggest waiting, despite my initial post.

Seeing as the infamous 'Event ID 4226' patch cannot function correctly in x64 environments, you'll need to edit tcpip.sys manually. Don't worry this isn't hard - Just open a copy of tcpip.sys in a hex editor, jump to offset 0xA6463 and change:

58 02 00 00 (maximum connections = 600)

... to read:

FF FF 00 00 (maximum connections = 65535)

... or whatever value you wish. Don't forget to rename the original copy before dropping your patched version into \system32\drivers! I emailed the author with suggestions on how to revise his patch to support the x64 platform.

That doesn't work. Check http://www.lvllord.de for the latest version that should fix this.

lvllord's patcher worked for me. I patched the tcpip.sys file and reinserted it into the source files, so it installs with the patched file from the begining.
