What is your internet speed? - Page 5 - PSP-Forum.com

Yeah, that's the thing that doesn't make sense. Why do things load faster on my laptop over WiFi versus my desktop over Ethernet? The only thing I can think of is that the computer itself effects it? :?

Well are you using the same browser on every computer?

BTW here is my connection speed...

VAMP · 04-11-2007, 03:38 AM

Yep, same OS (XP) and same browser (IE 7). Weird huh? :? :lol:

Very weired....btw try Firefox to increase the speed of web browsing if you want....I highly recommend it... :wink:

VAMP · 04-11-2007, 04:03 AM

That's what I've heard. Maybe I'll give it a try. Thanks.

Yeah there is a huge difference in how fast the page loads....plus lets say a plug-in needs to be installed to see something (per say flash player) FireFox tells you and asks you if you want to install it, you press yes and your done...its installed automatically...

Another thing is if your computer crashes for some reason, and you were browsing the Internet FireFox asks you if you want to restore your session, so you don't lose your page you were looking at...

About this function Opera is better, lets say u were browsing five pages, u can just close Opera. At any time u open Opera again, it will open exactly in the pages u were, even if u shut down the system.........

ps.: take care on what u see.... maybe someone else opens Opera in your pc, and u are scr###d
