Let’s consider those of them, which can be controlled and adjusted by the users themselves. So, the Internet speed depends on:

  • your tariff plan;
  • various viruses and other similar programs, as well as applications filtering traffic;
  • settings of your operating system and hardware (does your hardware work in a proper way? )
  • settings of your network card driver;
  • external network equipment (router, etc.);
  • the type of your connection (wireless Internet (Wi-Fi) or wired internet access);
  • quality of the “last mile” access.

So check these points trying to speed up your uploads and downloads from the Internet.

Google Netbook

A Google netbook based on Chrome OS may be as real as a much-talked-of Google smartphone based on Android OS. So this new gadget should be considered as the best product for support of the first PC operating system that was developed by Google programmers.

According to the rumors that appear in different online-communities of IT experts, Google plans to put its netbook on the market at the end of 2010. As expected, it will have embedded modules for broadband Internet connection (WWAN), 3G and 4G modems and flash memory instead of hard drive.
