help with my line speed

[ahmad_yehia]

hi guys...

iam new here & ihope that u coud help me

iam in adsl network (in workgroup) and the owner of the router make the download rate only 10 k/b ... though line speed is 1 mb

the problem is that i cant go to router home page to fix that ( changed the defult password)

u know 10 kb means nothing with emule or torrents

so ... my question is is there any way to speed up downloading ( like open port or login to the router page without knowing the password )

i hope that i didnt make atopic in wrong place
pls any help......

Frankly, Ahmad, since you don't own the router or pay for the ADSL connection, you have no right to abuse your employer's bandwidth. Even if you found a way to bypass the throttling, your employer will find out eventually (when mail slows to a crawl on a 1Mbit line, something is afoot!) and you'll get nailed for it.

10k/s is a fair amount to give to you for free, thats 1/10th of the 1mbit and i presume its diginet which cost alot, so be thankfull.

1mB adsl?
since when... i didnt know it was operational.
BTW 10KB/s is a fair speed if its FREe

Which country are you from? Eitherway, in all countries it would be illegal to steal bandwidth

Methinx it's maybe unfair to assume that the objective is to 'steal bandwidth', particularly if this is affecting a group of users, who may validly be entitled to it. It may be that they're being unfairly subjected to a limited facility, much like Telkrap does to us for the sake of profits, hence ahmad's need to post on this forum. More info, please - where, what, who, how, etc...
