ActiveSpeed - Special Usage Tips
Have you tried optimizing in the Intelligent Mode yet? The Intelligent mode takes the guess work out of optimizing your system. Keep in mind that during the Learning Phase of this Mode, your system will be slower than normal. Once your machine begins the Power Phase (usually taking 5-6 restarts with ActiveSpeed running), your system will be fully optimized.
You will still connect at the same rate -- for example, a 28,800 bps connection -- but data will come through at a much more efficient rate.
If you are using a modem to connect to the Internet, and you have a fax machine plugged in on the same line, it may degrade the quality of your line and slow down your Internet connection. Try unplugging the fax machine to see if it affects your Internet speed.
For online gaming, you’ll probably want the best PING time. In the Intelligent Mode under Smart Settings, slide the slider bar to the left for a faster reaction time.
When evaluating the improvements to your system, you should be sure that you are looking at the total download time, not the modem connection speed or download rate. Windows does not accurately calculate these last two measurements and will not reflect the modifications made by ActiveSpeed. You can test total elapsed time for transfers under approximately the same conditions by using the same time of day and connection speeds to perform these tests. Do a Quick Speed Test (under Speed Info) before you begin the Learning Phase and then again after you are in the Power Phase and compare!
