MY NET BROWSEING AND DOWNLOADING SPEED IS TOO SLOW...
HOT CAN IT BOOST INTERNET PLS TELL ME
 
First Question!! How are you connecting to the Internet?

 
So....instead of that ol' 33.6 modem,how about upgrading to 56k or even ADSL?

Dunno if that's your problem,but there are a lot of settings that affect the speed of your connection. I find the most common misconception is the need for "compression" in modem and port settings. Check your setup and turn off compression at all levels...even in "Dialup networking"/connections in the menu.

Try that.. see how you go

If it is a 56k modem, try downloading the newest drivers. My 56k modem was all slow and junk and then I got the latest drivers now it runs like a top. Try that.
