I know that some of the internet user is frustrated to their internet connection so I've search some simple tips to tweak or enhance your internet connection.
1st is to change your DNS server to OpenDNS but before we proceed let me show you What is DNS are:
(1) Short for Domain Name System (or Service or Server), an Internet service that translates domain names into IP addresses. Because domain names are alphabetic, they're easier to remember. The Internet however, is really based on IP addresses. Every time you use a domain name, therefore, a DNS service must translate the name into the corresponding IP address. For example, the domain name www.example.com might translate to 198.105.232.4.
The DNS system is, in fact, its own network. If one DNS server doesn't know how to translate a particular domain name, it asks another one, and so on, until the correct IP address is returned.
(2) Short for digital nervous system, a term coined by Bill Gates to describe a network of personal computers that make it easier to obtain and understand information.
To solve this problem, we look at a simple and reliable service called OpenDNS that speeds up your Internet connection and also handles some other very important issues. There are no software to install, It's totally free.
Another huge advantage of using OpenDNS is that it blocks phishing websites from loading on your computer. It uses data from Phishtank, a community site that is also used by Yahoo! Mail to determine if some particular website is part of any online phishing scam.
Now that you are prepared to switch to OpenDNS, please don’t expect huge gains in browsing speed since OpenDNS only improves the cycle between your computer and the DNS server.
Now you know about the benefits of OpenDNS lets proceed to obtaining the OpenDNS server,
If you decide to use OpenDNS just click the link below:

If you think your original DNS are much better to OpenDNS you can change it back to original:
go to start click control panel choose network connection and open the Local Area Connection in the General tab click properties, scroll down find the "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" then click properties in the General tab change the DNS server to Obtain DNS server automatically and click OK. You obtain now your original DNS server.
2nd is to Tweak your Mozilla Firefox:
Dont worry these settings are not making any trouble in your browser and this is works from many firefox users, if you are worried try to take down notes all of the changes you have done.
Open your Firefox type about:config on the browser, the windows saying "This might void your warranty!" ignore that click the I'll be careful, I promise!. Click on the Filter browser type
"network" scroll down find
"network.http.pipelining" set it to true,
"network.http.pipelining.maxrequest" set it to 30,
"network.http.max-connections" set it to 30,
"network.http.max-connections-per-server" set it to 20,
now close your firefox and open it again to test if its working good for you.
3rd is to tweak your Internet Explorer:
Click Start, click run and type regedit.exe
Expand:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER
Software
Microsoft
Windows
Current version
Then open Internet settings do not expand it. Look at the right registry if do you have "MaxConnectionsPerServer" if you don't have right click the "Internet Settings" click new choose the "DWORD Value" and rename it to "MaxConnectionsPerServer" double click it change Hexadecimal to Decimal and set the Value data to "0" the last is find "MaxConnectionPer1_0Server" double click it change Hexadecimal to Decimal and set the Value data to "50" now close the regedit. You can test it to determine if there any improvement happens.
I recommended to use Internet Download manager: click here
Internet Download Manager (IDM) is a tool to increase download speeds by up to 5 times, resume and schedule downloads. Comprehensive error recovery and resume capability will restart broken or interrupted downloads due to lost connections, network problems, computer shutdowns, or unexpected power outages.
