Look, if you're downloading, and the speed seems to download as 1kb-10kb, and you're not satisfy with it, just reconnect and it'll fasten up. This doesn't always work, but it works many time for me.
This tip is for Cable/DSL/T1,T3.
28K/56K user, no matter how much you reconnect, it barely go up to 3kb/sec :lol:
