Increasing Internet Speed! Will these hacks work?

[delawaresace]

So I’m running the newest radio with DCD’s ROM from his 3.0 kitchen. Everything is running great. I love the great rev A and the stable radio. I started poking around and I’ve run across a few tips and hacks to help my internet speeds be all they can be. Some, like changing your DNS really helped. Others though, I was a little hesitant to try out until I learned a little bit more about them. Instead of resurrecting some zombie threads, I decided to start a new one with links to the hacks in question. I would really appreciate any factual answers and comments on these. Thanks.

OK, this one is a little old, and the reasoning behind it seems to be on the mark, but I have a mogul and don’t have much memory to play around with. Anyone out there using this hack on there mogul? What do you have it set to? How much faster would this hack increase my speed if I tether using WMWifiRouter? And if you want, care to go into detail why this works?

This one I have my doubts about (increasing the TimerWheelSize). Don’t get me wrong, if someone could explain to me why this would work, I’m all for it, but it seemed everyone did this hack with the DNS hack and was attributing the increase of speed to TimerWheelSize. Once more, anyone willing to explain the details of this hack and if it will increase my speed if I tether using WMWifiRouter?
