No, I would not suggest that. Over the years the Linux kernel has become quite good at managing things and furthermore TCP/IP is based on Open Standards so sane defaults are applied. Those are IMHO two good reasons for not tuning any network-related sysctls unless you have good reasons, no alternatives and know the implications of those changes.

This does not provide enough information to base any suggestion on. Do capture full packets on the server, initiate the connection a few times and then examine network flows and payload in Wireshark? Also do check the servers network, system and daemon log entries for clues.
