Improve your dialup modem preformance
You
can’t assume that just because you connected at a speed like 48.3KBps
that you will stay there. Today’s modems automatically fall back to a
lower speed if the line noise is too high to maintain a faster
connection, but sometimes they fall back too soon or too far.

Here’s how to do it:
Click Start the button.
Select Settings.
Click Control Panel.
Double-click on the Modems icon.
Select your modem.
Click the Properties button.
Click the Connections tab.
Click the Advanced button.
In the “Extra settings” field, type S36=7
Click OK to save your settings.
This
will force your modem to try to stay connected at high speeds in two
different ways before dropping back to an asynchronous mode with auto
speed buffering.

Trick5:


Increase the speed of your internet connection without a new modem

As
more and more people get quick connections to the internet, such as
cable or ADSL, it becomes apparent to the user of a simple dial-up
modem that the World Wide Web can quickly turn into the World Wide
Wait. Here a trick that can help speed up your current modem without
shelling out the big bucks.

There is a setting
located in your windows registry called the Maximum Transfer Unit
(MTU). This determines the size of the packets of data sent between
your and your server. In Windows 95, this setting is has a value of
1,500 bytes when the actual size of internet packets is 1,000 bytes.
This can sometimes slow things down. To remedy the situation, simply
follow these steps:

In the registry editor (Start > Run > regedit.exe),
navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\NetTrans.
In the NetTrans folder you should find another folder named “000x” in
which x represents a fourth digit. Right-click on the “000x” folder and
select New and StringValue. Rename the item that appears in the panel
on the right side to MaxMTU, then double-click it to bring up the Edit
String box and give it a velue of 1002.

Remember to
keep playing with the MaxMTU value until you feel that your internet
connection has greatly sped up. Some people report huge speed gains
using this tricks, while others hardly notice a difference. In any
case, it’s definetly worth a try.
