Quote: Those things are like magical fuel-efficiency enhancers or software RAM accelerators. They're sold to the ignorant on hype alone. Think about it. If something like that could make a difference, it would be included by the manufacturer. Then they'd clean up on the independent speed tests and reviews and own the marketplace. You think you can install a $5 magnet on your fuel line to raise your gas mileage 50%? Wow, every car company on earth must be stupid for not spending an extra $5 on a $30,000 vehicle. You think you can install a modem wizard and suddenly break through the hardware limitations to get T-3 speeds out of a 28.8 analog? If you do, I have some lovely oceanfront property to sell you. In Kansas.

Oh, and I have a way to turn a bottle-rocket into an ICBM with a 50 megaton thermonuclear warhead. All it takes is a paper clip, 2 condoms and a pint of pickle brine. Send me $19.99 for the blueprints.

I would agree if that person is ignorant, skeptical or pessimistic about it, please don't talk rubbish when you have no idea or knowledge regarding the function/software pertaining to Modem Booster/Accelerators and refering or assuming what the product is as you see it.

Sorry for being sarcastic as you leave me with no other choice but to retaliate against your uncalled for comments.

Keeping Your Modem Up-to-Date

Some modern modems can be upgraded to enhance their capabilities, or correct their bugs, by using a "flasher" program to load new firmware (that's the software that runs inside a modem) into them. For instance, a number of the 28.8 modems sold in the last couple of years can be upgraded to 33.6 modems just by running a flasher to update their firmware.

For more info about upgrading and a collection of links to the firmware update sites maintained by various modem manufacturers.

Do these things actually work? I had one once and it didn't seem to make much of a difference.

Oh I forgot to mention, if you install Netsonic modem booster. Remove all other programs that comes with it by going to control panel and select Add/Remove and REMOVE all the unwanted programs incoporated e.g. Flywast, Gator, Offer companion, etc. and you will notice that it will be optimized very much faster(speed boost) every time by at least 75-85% using only Netsonic Modem Booster.

Slow Modem speed?

Don't worry use modem booster:

Quote:
Modem Booster is a Web accelerator and utility that speeds up Web browsing, file downloading, emailing, online gaming and chat. This robust utility addresses the main cause of slow Internet browsing- fragmentation of data during transmission. This utility tests modem performance and tweaks the TCP/IP settings accordingly via a systematic fine-tuning process. Modem Booster can boost average modem speed by 10-50% on the average and up to 300% on the extreme, making a 33k modem go faster than a 56k modem in downloading speed. There is no need for you to know difficult terms like MTU, RWIN and TTL or know your ISP's settings before you can optimize your modem settings. Just click a button and Modem Booster will run the diagnostics and tune-up automatically.

IT'S FREE!!! USE IT AND NOTICE THE DIFFERENCE IN SPEED FOR SLOW MODEMS

Yeah, the first time and then the images are cached from there on in. Your argument about how slow it makes forums isn't very strong. Most (probably all) users will wait the extra few seconds for it to load, I know I would.

This discussion has been exhausted and like I said before, it's starting to go in circles. Accept that you have your opinion and every has theirs. I mean you're starting to disagree with people who are on dial-up yet you say you are speaking for those on dial-up? When I return to dial-up in a month, I will return to the forums time permitting..with or without avatars.
