A while back, someone posted a link for improving cell service.

I can't find it though.

It was basically a program that looked at all your options, then gave you the codes to manually set up routing for the fastest route available to you.

It worked great, but I can't put my finger on it or find a link through google.

Does anyone know what I am talking about?

A complex page or anything with audio/video - forget about it.

If I recall correctly, I was able to manually bypass the usual routes and my connection sped up noticeably the last time I did this.
