GPRS and Citrix...does it work?

[Traver]

I am interested in learning a bit about your applications.

I have a GPRS mobile card for a laptop. It is a Nokia d211. It is supposed to give me 40 kbit/s, but I have not been reciving more then 26,8 kbit/s.

I am using citrix, and the application I wish to distribute are heavy. They are showing maps, with data about a utility companys wires.

If you got some tuning tips, or ways of compressing the data stream, so that my boss won´t go funky on the project, I would be glad.

There is a Citrix white paper on optimising Citrix for operation over GPRS networks. we are in the same boat as you, and are currently testing. I shall let you know how it goes!

I have found the white paper.
Thanks
I have read a bit, and can see that the MTU size is important. I have used dr.tcp to set that, once I had to make a vpn connection. Works fine.
