Instructions
Step 1
To increase your connection speed, you may need to purchase a special USB extension cable, which is available at every computer or radio store.
Step 2
Install the USB extension cable into a USB port on your computer. Insert a 3G modem into the other end of the wire and place it so that it is closer to windows, doors, but farther from concrete walls that block the signal, having a significant impact on the data transfer rate. Connection speed can also change if you move your location closer to the window and away from the concrete floors.
Step 3
You can also try to make some settings for the Internet modem. To do this, go to the settings panel of your device in accordance with the instructions supplied with the modem. In the MTU field, select a value in the range from 256 to 4096 and save the changes, and then check the connection speed.
Step 4
If no changes have occurred, try changing the setting by setting a different number, for example, 2500. If you cannot find the correct value for using the modem, return this value to the standard value of 1500.
Step 5
If the data transfer speed has dropped significantly, try contacting the support service of the operator that provides you with Internet access by dialing the phone number indicated on the package with your contract or on the company's official website. It is possible that the tariff plan has a data transfer rate limitation and to increase it, you may need to change the options used, the SIM card or even the modem model.
