ampz Posted April 14, 2005 CID Share Posted April 14, 2005 My connection is alot slower, the network isnt encrypted so if someone had a laptop where i am they could prolly find out my passwords and personal information etc. How do i tweak my speed for this connection? Do i need to update the firmware? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do i need to update the firmware? What does your provider offer for speed? Are you using AV software or a firewall?
