Default Increase your downloading speed by 3x+

I know that some of you like downloading anime and other things etc... but don't you hate that when it takes like forever? I was downloading MapleStories not long ago and it took like 2 or 1 hours. That is a lot of time but you can increase that speed and lower the time it takes to download by 3x+. I was watching this MetaCafe video but I fogot which one so you have to watch the follow to understand.

Actually non of these links were the one I saw but they look pretty ok. The one I saw, I think was this tool that "borrowed" all the wireless internet around you even if they have WEP or something like that and uses their internet connection into one. Either that or I didn't read it correctly but I know that it increased the speed MAD fast <3



****EDIT**** I found the link and here it is on the bottem the first one down

To be honest, I'm not sure if it works or anything. I just know that it is suppose to work better then normal based on the video and comments.

Ofc it might work.But you first need fast connection.
If you have like 1MB/s dl and 200kb/s upload that dosnt meen that if you use this you will have 2 mb/s dl and 500kb/s up.
Even with using these you cant use full power of your 1Mb and 200kb. But without it it's much slower.

Hmm,

Not that I don't think it's good stuff, but I am usually between download speeds of 200-800kbps and up to 300kbps on uploads. Not boasting, but I find my connection fast enough for now. ^_^;

lol,

On eMule I got CS2 in 2 hours. But I didn't like it so I went back to 7.0 which I find has better interface. It was downloading at 400+kbps. But there are some programs which take a night...or two to download. But I don't mind PC being on at night as long as screen is off. I waste the power of a 16 inch regular fan.

Eh. I don't trust programs that say "Download this and your internet speed will be so much faster!!"...
I just upgraded to 10mbps internet, so my downloads/upload speeds are well over my expectations... Not to mention an enormous upgrade from my old 768kbps speed

I've always had problems with downloading so I invested in getting a hamster and hamster-wheel and set it up.

Not only can I over-clock my PC, but I can also push my download an extra 25 KB/s!!!

That second video is funny because it says it used a dial-up connection, but in the video, they selected 512k Cable/DSL/Other as their connection speed.

Lol -.- I only watch the video and tryed to post it to try and help anyone but I guess it's not helping and it seems to be a fake too o.o A

Also, metacafe "pays" the people who make videos etc...like tutorials so I guess that guy was too poor so he had to fake some stuff to make some quick dough O.o
