Ok I just got dsl today..and it kicks 56k's a$$
Of course, as a SGer, I want to tweak everything possible. So can someone help me over at the
Tweaking Forum?
I just need to know what I should download or do to my registry.
Thanks in advance

Can I download/use the speedguide patch, and then do the dslreport tweak together? or should I just do one?
*i asked in the other forum, no one responded yet..*

Just do the SG tweak. It should be all you need.
