Hey frends,
I just bought a Nokia 6021. BT and EDGE. It promises internet speed upto 176 kbps. I am using airtel mobile office. I manage to get a mere 3 KBps and I am not happy with it. I guess it should be at least 10 KBps for an EDGE phone. Well higher Nokia models promise much higer speeds but 3 KBps is too slow.
Are there any tweaks or softwares available to improve the speed?

I have an Apple iBook. How do I configure GPRS on iBook? There are no drivers for Mac on Nokia website.
i plan to install Zone alarm and Ad Aware SE on my Windows PC. Will it increase/decrease the net speed?
