Hello. You can increase that speed to 921.6 Kbps from dial up connection (by which ever name u use)> properties> general tab > select whichever modem u use > configure > maximum port speed change it to 921600.
But the question is does it really help at all?
I certainly dont think so.

my download speed using Airtel Mo is more than 19 kBps. check it out

By the way airtel live also works in the laptop, only that m not able to use MSN Messenger.

i am also from WB. i am using MO on kolkata airtel sim. But the speed is not good enough. When i download something, download manager shows 7-9KBps. As per ZDnet speed test it says 56kbps-59kbps. Airtel tower is nearby my home, so i think there are no problem with signal strenght, it may happen for handset. i am using Nokia 3220 handset(EDGE supported). so please tell me what handset you using. thanks.

3220 has EDGE class 6 .... so the maximum speeds can be upto 14 KBps .. and since actual realtime performance is never close to 100% .. so speeds should be somewhere around 10-12 KBps .... those speeds that ur getting maybe because of the server ur downloading from .... to see the maximum speeds u can get ,,, visit *www.softpedia.com/ ... look for a download .. and select the romania (RO) server .. one the best among the few i've come across ...
Ahem .. 3G ???? No yaar .. sirf EDGE .... that too naam-ka-waste ... believe me ... i used to get better speeds before Airtel officially introduced EDGE ...
BTW .. i'm using a Nokia 6681 ... and guess what .. no airtel tower close to my house ...

guys, one thing i noticed....the speed varies from place to place even inside ur house.
My room has god window in only one side, whenever i surf from cornor table in my room, speed is slow, but as i go close to window it becomes faster. I normally sit in my terrace and surf the net, there i get a blazing speed.
try it out guys, go to ur terrace or open space for better reception of the net.
By the way i think EDGE matters a lot. earlier i was using LG G1800 without edge, that time the max speed was 5KB/s, but now i am using N6680 and speed increased more than 3 times.

yeah right. Just as you tend to go to an open place and recieve clearer voice...cuz most indoor stuff interferes with signals

If you are using postpaid then don wory jus send them SMS on 121 like "Unable to connect to Customer care" And they will call you and will solve the problem in 3 hours. I too faced same pro.
But if you are using prepaid .. then forget doing anything wont help you. Just pray that Airtel guys pitty on you and the problem gets solved.
