Try changing the values of TCP and UDP buffers manually by echo the values on the sys file entries and see if the situation is improved. Later these tweaks can be added in the init.rc .
rmem and wmen are the buffers : */proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_wmem* and */proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_rmem* * * Also tweaking these also might help */proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max and /proc/sys/net/core/wmem_max * Read this for more info on these buffers : *http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/tcp.7.html* Regards, Anirudh.
