I am not a moderator, but I do have a couple of suggestions.

First, upgrade to the latest version of Firefox. It is fast!
Add the plug-ins Grease Monkey and Ad-Block to Firefox.


Second, use a browser cleaner such as CCleaner. It is a free program. http://ccleaner.com
When the Ccleaner program tells you that running the scan will permanently delete the files it finds, click OK.
Before you use Ccleaner the first time, click on Settings, then click the box that will make sure Ccleaner makes a new System Restore point before it deletes any files.

Hope this helps!

There's not always a lot you can do for this sort of thing, but I know a couple things that are known to help. So if you are using Firefox (which you kind of have to be for any of my tips to work) download the FasterFox addon. You can either Google search it or go to Firefox's addon site and search.

This one helps, I believe, a bit. That is to disable IPv6 in Firefox (IPv6 is the replacement for IPv4 when IPv4 runs out of possible IP Addresses from all the new computers popping up around the world but is not hardly used right now). In your Firefox address bar type "about:config" without the quotes. In the filter bar type "ipv6" and one result should be left. Double click it, network.dns.disableIPv6, so that its value is set to true.

The next does technically help but can throttle websites bandwidth just a bit if set too high. One again type "about:config" in Firefox's address bar. In the filter type "network.http.pipelining", or just type "pipelining" to get all the results we need to edit, and double click it so that it's value is True. Next type in "network.http.pipeling.maxrequests" and set it's value to about 4, which I believe is the default. In any case I wouldn't recommend anything higher than 8. Basically what this second edit does is change the amount of times Firefox demands the page to be loaded. I personally believe anything between 2 and 4 is quite fine. Finally type in "network.proxy.pipelining" and set its value to true.

So those are all types that will help if you're just browsing, with Firefox, and I'm not sure I know any general modifications to help your connection constantly... actually... well I haven't used it myself so this is more or a less a 'good luck buddy' sort of thing. But I believe SG TCP Optimizer is supposed to be a decent program to tweak your internet connection. You'd kinda have to just try and check to see if it helps or not.

Also as BearClaw said Adblock Plus is a great addon for firefox. It will save yourself a bit of bandwidth by blocking tons of ads.

Hope at least something I said will help. I remember what it's like having slow internet too =(

Download TuneUp, google its torrent. Use BitComet to download the torrent. Then use TuneUp's internet optimizer. TuneUp has many maintenance features that are very very useful. It takes care of your computer. If its about having the fastest browser for Windows, nothing is better than Opera browser, and why in the world is there less who knows about it and uses it? Opera is best for Windows! Safari browser for Mac OS.

Why don't u use a downloader like DOWNLOAD ACCILATOR PLUS, ORBIT DOWNLOADER, MASS DOWNLOADER.
Sometimes we want to give IP address, port number, username password to the downloader's connection settings

First u have to download and install bandwidth monitor cheque ur speed. If don't get the proper speed then go to internet explorer properties and delete cookies, all offline content ,then click on run and type %temp% & prefetch delete all this.Now cheque ur speed if it does not increase pnce again click on run and tupe MSCONFIG and go to start up and remove all the tick except sound and graphics.That's it thank U good bye

Stop installing addons as recommended by these guys. Download accelerators don't increase nothing or change a single thing about how fast you download. get a better plan from your ISP or change ISPs.(internet service provider)

The point of this forum is to increase speed for free... obviously everyone has the common sense to go for a better plan but it wud cost money, if we were looking for that answer then we wudnt b here. plz suggest a way to increase speed while using the current plan....

i heard internet cyclone and internet optimizer are 2 programs that increase speed. i am using vista so none of those 2 worked but if ur using XP then u guys shud giv it a go.

I think all ISPs give a constant surfing rate to their customers with respect to how much they pay. Nevertheless, you can slightly influence this speed by using accelerators like DAP and IDM to increase download speed while using Modem Booster, to increase your surfing speed.

Just use specific softwares for specific task you want to perform:

To watch videos use the latest versions of opera( it has the ability to accelerate the streaming speed)

use firefox for other purposes.

Use Ccleaner and clean all unnecessary bullshits

And use orbit as download manager

Thats all.

Good fact about opera. i shall go ahead and check it out. i mainly have problems watching hulu or live tv channles such as geo or national geographic on my pc via my DSL. its a typical streaming problem and i obviously need a lil more speed. if opera works then that wud be great.

Just download anyone of these---- cyber tweak, easy mtu, tcp optimiserand internet cyclone.
and these are cleaner softwares-----cc cleaner, easy cleaner and reg seeker.
