Answer» That tweaktest is a good one, I agree. That also helped me improve my connection speed.I´m glad for give back the favour made me one USA friend nine YEARS ago... I always thought you the native english speakers have a super great advantage in computers because, almost all of the computer and software technical information is in english. All our books in spanish are practically translated copies of IT ENGINEERS books. Many times the translations are not good, because, for example, the translation is in spanish from Chile, or Argentina, or México, and this kinds of spanish is not the same as our spanish from Spain. I can´t difference between USA technical english books or GB technical english books or, even, australian technical english books, if the technical words are the same, the expressions, and all that... All manners, I think my own english expressions are not the same as yours, but... think I´m not a native english speaker. In spite of, I must give a lot of thanks to all those USA and spanish engineers, technicians, and all the people who has spent his time in putting a piece or all his technical knowledge to the rest of the world by this big NET. HARLEQUIN Quote Not really, unless you have a really fast connection and very little RAM, or of the sites are very intensive, for example lots of flash, embedded movies and so on.

For a simple home computer, at least 256MB should be sufficent for surfing the web. Hi Neil, Yes I was looking for an upgrade for 2 reasons:- 1) I want to create some videos 2) Getting a faster connection Thanks Everybody for the advice. I guessed you weren't a native English speaker, but you are pretty good. I only picked up on it because of a few phrases etc, your English is a lot better than many native English speakers, believe me. I can see where you're coming from in relation to the IT books being translated, often the translations aren't properly checked and the result isn't what it was MEANT to be. Again, we're wandering from the topic . . . never mind. Edit: That was Harlequin, didn't see your reply there Shouvik.Hi, if you have a W98 OS, try to download EasyMTU in: http://www.rob.cybercomm.nl/easymtu/ I think it´s so easy to use and ideal for your 6Kb/s connection and your OS. HARLEQUIN.One question shouvik, are you sure your connection is 6KB/s and not 6Mb/s, 6KB/s would be 48Kb/s and that would be the relative speed of a dial-up connection, as you were saying you have cable (LAN)? You would think cable tends to be faster than dial-up. 8-)fffreak
