AFAIK the Max does not know anything about RWIN - it's simply a
client thingy.

Well that depends on what you want to do. If you plan to do much
interactive work via your dialup connection, 576 is probably OK,
but perhaps a bit suboptimal when doing large downloads. If
you're only planning to surf or slurp, 1500 is a good setting.
