Airtel Broadband speed boost

Hi guys,

Today, I'm gonna tell you all an incredible story. As to my aunthenticity, Sushubh knows me pretty well so I wouldn't lie. Two days back, I had an Airtel 256 KBPS Unlimited Package. The uptime was very good and the customer service rocked but the speed, well, the less said the better. After waiting around for days for Airtel to provide me with a better package I got really bugged... with my internet speed.

I searched around the internet for methods to increase speeds of internet connections. So I searched and tried many different things. Cache tweaking, firefox tweaking, trying different commands on RUN. Then I restarted my system and tried a speed test... Look at the results below.

Now, don't ask me how it was possible or what I did. If I knew I would tell you.:redface: There were far too many things I tried out in one night but it was well worth the adventure.:thumbsup:
 
Incredible for sure, but I believe a lot of people have been there and done that already.It worked for them too, but only a for a few whiskers.Enjoy it while it lasts buddy.

Yeah, just got wind of the speed boost posts. Thanks for the gyan.

But I think I've tried shutting down the modem and seeing if it would go away. Tried restarting again. Tried keeping the modem off for 4 hrs. The boost still stays. Its the modem or the ethernet card. I'm sure of that. I think I've done something to it.:confused:
