Fast loading web pages while surfing the Internet may have more to do with your web browser settings and preferences than your Internet connection speed.
Try these easy Firefox tweaks and you’ll see that you’re surfing the Internet from 3 to 30 times faster!
To get started, open your Firefox web browser. In the address/location bar type [about] and then press your Enter key. (NOTE: DON’T TYPE THE BRACKETS.)
Open Firefox Web Browser
