How can I increase my Dial-up(from mobile connection) internet speed ?

Question

I have internet connection from my mobile, it is a dial-up connection. But it's speed is very slow,though it is showing 115 kbps, is there any way to increase it's speed ?

Answer 1

Unfortunately 115 kbps is serial CPU to modem speed and does not show modem to modem speed.

Unless you have a data plan with your mobile carrier, regular PPP might be limited 14.4 kbps (which seems like a crawl by today's standards).  I have a USB mobile data device and when I just tested it, download was 582 kbps and upload 166 kbps.

A mobile data plan is usually about $60/month (in addition to any voice rates) whether you use a dongle on an existing mobile phone or pda, or separate device.
