Thanks And Sorry For Reply Late 🙂
It Works For Me
HI,
I don’t know if this is really works or not but yes I felt the differences while opening the websites, or youtube.
Some correction to you steps:
1. Speed is not increasing at all? I have check my speed with speedtest.
2. in Wireless network connection status window, You are referring to sent and received bytes as a speed. But my friend it is not a speed. Its how much bytes you have sent/received since connected to internet.
But the overall it is good trick at least i can browse quicker or watch videos quicker.
Its DNS hack so it won’t show any increase or decrease in speed. But it will eventually increase the download speed! 🙂
