A temporary modem, external maybe to boost speed?

Posted by rjlockhart04-08 on June 21, 2009, at 1:02:29

Buenos Noches,

Alright...where all there to help, is there any way too boost 56k modem speed? this thing is so slow, just 2-3 youtube clips take 2 hours to load. I know there's DSL, yet, for some reason a long time ago, back in late 90's i went to some computer "junk" store, had all the awesome 80's computer's APPLE II'S really cool!

Anyways, i rerember looking at this..modem, "HP", there was alot of them, kinda like the old Funcoland? rerember the cheap .15 NES games? those where fun! loved playing old school, duck hunt!

Wanst modern, just a mediem size modem. What where those? and can they, if....it's still around boost speed to 64k?

I love sitting here and counting the milloseconds it takes to load, in a billion in a second.

What can you do to boost dialup, right now, DSL is old/and on hold, have to save up and work for the money!

Anything? deneb do you know about connection speeds? warp speeds?

Larry! help! Phillipdialphia can i call collect? 1800?

mee too, 2005 i just said "phhhfff" I've had enought! maybe i won't wake up. Well i did...

Now i forgot all the important Braindrive needed, still backing up files from 2005.

Thanks Phillie.

Who know's, just need to get fast, i mean .002kbs would be a lot better (64kpbs) than 52k. Ugh! somebody help me! Wished I was in New Orlands having some Southern Comfort...start dancing, have a tent revival.

Nope there's not much I think you can do. Youtube and other stuff is gonna be really slow - even on a 256k DSL youtube was slow for me. You have any neighbours with a wireless network in range you could ask to share their connection?

If you can't get a line in what about mobile wireless broadband? You can get a card for your computer to connect to wireless networks without needing a cell phone.
