i don't think any software can increase the speed of internet.. there are some software like DAP(Download accelator plus ) .. which do some help to maintain more speed but it will not increase the speed to that level that your internet service provider can't provide.. Better switch to broadband to get high speed.. i am using slow dial up connection too but for downloading purpose i use dap.. which not increase the speed of downloading but it helps to maintain on high...

o ok i will see wat i can do about DAP. I dont know bt i have have a feeling it wont work . Just that felling. Anyways wont be downloading that. Most of my files are torrents and i am pretty sure DAP cant download that. Or can it?

nope.. you can't download torrent file from dap.. It need its own download manager.. Dap not provide facility to download torrent files( don't know about latest version ).. But for others you can use DAP.. well it will not increase too much(noticeable) speed. but still its good for low network connection like dial up.

"Just be patient", others say, or "Just wait a minute". But every minute of waiting seems like eternity. Internet connection had benn slower every day year of my life. And disconnections are son irritating. I'm just waiting them to say that "I'm nott irritating, I'm a disconnection." But it really takes a lot of patience in it, that's why I have been so cool in almost everything I do. The End.

The ONLY way to increase your Internet speed is to get a faster connection from your ISP (or to change your ISP to one that offers a faster rate). 'Accelerator software' simply CANNOT increase your speed, though it can make your PC slightly more efficient by increasing the cache size. There are a number of 'tweaks' that anyone can do for free manually and all that these softwares do is to do them automatically. NONE of these tweaks, however, actually increase the speed of your Internet: they simply allow the PC to hold more information about the sites you have previously visited and therefore make them load slightly faster when you revisit them. You might like to try this one, however, which is free and uses a different principle from most of the others. READ the caveats first, though, to see if it might be worth your while. It WON'T make much difference to you if you are: a) on a dial-up connection b) do not live in the USA or Europe http://www.techsupportalert.com/best-free-internet-accelerator.htm

I should tell you that no significant result can be achieved by those accelerator software. Just like those commentators above, upgrade your internet service with faster one. Or, you can do this little thing. I usually set all software that can do automatic update to manual, so I update my antivirus, anti-spyware, and Windows manually. Because if you run automatic update, for example you let Windows download a ton of update files by itself, then it can slow down your connection. Just download manually and go to sleep.

Yer thats a good one. The main reson why i posted this topic though is because i wanna use it to download large files ranging from 1 to 5 gig.like movies and other heavy interesting application. When i started some took more than 48hrs and trust me that was really faustrating so i think one of these accelerators might just help in reducing the amount of time you know.

I think you have to talk with your service provider because because i don't think that these type of software available at internet.

Yes i have talked with them but the one of my choice is so expensive. Theres no way i can spend that much on my computer right now especially when i am not making any money from it yet. See the reason y i joiing mylot?lol Anyways just tell me one good free software and let me worry about if it will work or not. Thanks a lot friend!

Unfortunately, internet accelerators don't work, or if they do, they don't do much. Only thing to increase your internet speed is get to a better ISP, or if they have upgrades, do so. It'll get some more cash outta your pocket but if that's worth it for you then.. Also, there might be temporary files clogging up your computer, or a virus slowing down your connection.

But i have gotten a lotta testimonies from close friends, i know the best way is to upgrade but as you know higher broadbands are really very expensive. Well you are rite about it getting more cash outta my pocket,Anyways i think the best thing for me to do is to stick to one for now till i gat enough money to upgrade. And about the virus thing i think my computer is free of viruses . I use the latest version of kaspersky and i update regularly. thanks and happyMylotting my friend!
