Yes get your wallet out & upgrade to a better speed . What provider are you with & what speed do you currently have? Also are you experiencing poor speeds over wireless or wired connection?

It can also depend on the OS your running. For instance, XP's default settings limit it to around 20Mbit/sec throughput regardless of the line speed. There'a a useful program called TCPOptimizer that can assist to set things up for better speed.

yeah im with TheCoder and daithi there are ways to optimize what speed
is on your interent connection to make sure you have the full potential out of it.
however you cannot increase speed unless your not using the full speed of the connection.

Digital Kaos does not condone any other method

a few things determine that.

Computer---Network-----Internet

Hardware ---Modem----- External

Browser---- Router------ (Website)

Computer
decent hardware eg. CPU,GPU,hard drive
some times that can have an effect loading.

Network
the connection from your computer to modem or router
whether its Ethernet Gigabit or Wireless.

Modem and Router

sometimes best resetting to make sure you get your full speed sometimes
best way to test is download speed a file at a reliable site like nvidia

Software

TCPOptimizer that will change a few of the settings for you
and set your MTU i think yours will be about 1500.

Browsers can be configured to run more efficiently and load
quicker such as firefox as an example.
