Has anyone been able to successfully use the new software from Starcomms called iboost which can be downloaded from this page http://www.starcomms.com/iboost.php ? It is free to download and Starcomms claim that it really increases the speed of the Internet. A lady from their customer care called me yesterday to inquire about how I was enjoying the Starcomms internet thing, and I complained about the low speed and she directed me to their website to get the software. The problem I'm having with the iboost software is that anytime I switch it on, it cuts off my Internet connection meaning that while it is switched on, I can't browse. I don't know what the heck is going on, but if anyone can help me figure out a solution, I'll really appreciate it. Typical Nigerian stuff that will always have one problem or the other.

O'boy, l virtually agree wit u abt dis starcomms iboost. it has bin cutting off my connection to the Internet, since l installed it on my pc.it is better to mbrowse witout it & enjoy superb connection. Starcomms technicians/engineers nd 2 chk it out.

Does anyone know the email of the customer care?

i tried it n d stuf is crap______even wit d superfast option u cant stream videos
disabled and/or uninstall d tin jare
tnk God for onspeed

The thing worked for you!!!
Which one is onspeed?

A friend of mine says it works well for him,

Even speed on 1x CDMA doubled

I am going to try it out in a few minutes!

Does it work with only the mobile data card? i use the desk phone and each tym i switch on the i boost, the pages won't display.i guess it acts like a fire wall.is there anything i am not doing right? please help.

i didn't notice any difference when network is good but in 1x mode it could be helpful.

@Mavor check out the onspeed website www.onspeed.com if you need more info contact me, Y:M lagos4nigeria

Yeah, I got the software, but it needs a username and password which I don't have.

benefit of iboost? our little secret. sometimes when your subscription expires, iboost still give you access to the net.

hmmmmmmmm flyuche wats d koko?

There is no such software that 'increases' your internet speed. The only thing they do is cache your browsing so your regularly visited sites are stored on your hard drive. The cache is updated on a regular basis.

WORD!!! starcomms sucks

sucking what? your tit?

Forgot to make comment on this iBoost thing!

I downloaded nd instaled it on my Laptop using their EVDo package.

I didn't see any difference in the speed other than what i av been getting, I guess its greatly meant for the 1x platform dudes*

The iboost stuff is messed up.Installed it and it gave my system a blue screen twice!Besides that there is no significant difference in speed.
