Totally free! Speed up your broadband by 500M in one second.

If you are a telecom broadband user, then you must pay attention to the following one.

At present, China Telecom is offering free speed-up activities to all broadband users.As long as you are a telecom user, regardless of the region, you can make your broadband "fast" in minutes!

　How much faster?

The broadband speed-up of China Telecom is divided into two grades. If your bandwidth is lower than 200M, speed up to 200M for free.If it is between 200M and 500M, speed up to 500M for free.

Simply put, it is to directly "upgrade" your broadband!

Is it really free? What is the routine?

This is also the most concerned by many small partners, rest assured! The whole speed-up process is free, as long as you click an application link on the webpage as required, and you don’t even have to go to the business hall.

However, this speed increase can only last for 7 days at a time. After 7 days, you need to apply again on the website. Moreover, during the speed-up period, all operations are unrestricted until the end of this activity (possibly at the end of the year)!

How to operate? Tell me quickly!

After nagging for a long time, I finally got to the most important step. How to operate?

In fact, it’s very simple. Just click on the speed-up link https://znts.189.cn/novfree/index.jsp (there is a large number of visitors at present, if the prompt can’t be opened, just refresh it several times or change the time period), and then press the on-screen prompts to operate. Basically, it’s done with one click, which is very simple.

Pour some cold water! Why don’t I feel faster after upgrading?

After the speed-up is completed, in principle, you can already experience the high-speed broadband, which brings the extremely fast pleasure! What? Why doesn’t your broadband feel?

In fact, there are two basic principles:One is the dynamic dial-up users of China Telecom with FTTH (optical fiber) access only.Second, the optical cat, router, network cable and network card used by users must all meet the gigabit transmission standard.

The former condition is best met, because you must have known when installing broadband whether you are using optical fiber or ordinary broadband. Moreover, it seems that telecom has popularized optical fiber in the country at present, and ordinary broadband is rare.

The second question is relatively complicated, because there are not only telecom equipment in it (optical cat), but also many users’ own equipment (routers, networks, network cards, etc.).

As long as one item fails to meet the gigabit standard, we can’t experience the changes brought by high-speed broadband.

The question is coming, how to determine whether your equipment is "Gigabit"?

Light cat

Light cats are generally given by telecommunications, and the brands and models used by operators in different places are different, so it is difficult to have a standard judgment method.

The simplest thing is that Baidu inquires about its model, or calls the local service provider. Of course, there is still an uncertain method here, that is, to check whether there is a "CLASS C+" logo on the nameplate at the bottom.

Please note that this is not the only criterion for judging gigabit routing, and most manufacturers will have some "castrated versions" for operators, So… … And you know it!

router

Router is also a relatively important thing in the whole transmission, and to be honest, it is also very pit.

For example, the dual Gigabit router that manufacturers vigorously promoted two years ago, many people mistakenly thought that the router they happily bought home was Gigabit, but in fact, the "dual Gigabit" here only refers to its wireless rate (or the two frequency bands are added together), which has nothing to do with the real Gigabit routing.

If you want to judge whether the router supports Gigabit, one of the most direct methods is to go to the manufacturer’s parameter page and focus on checking the interface. If Gigabit is written, it will definitely be a hundred megabytes.

reticle

If you don’t buy a fake network cable, a very simple way to judge is to look at the logo on the cable jacket.

Here you will usually see several kinds of marks (the legendary "several kinds of wires") such as CAT5, CAT-5E, CAT-6 and CAT-6A, among which CAT-5E, CAT-6 and CAT-6A can transmit gigabit signals, provided that what you buy is not fake!

Wired network card/wireless network card

In addition to the above, the network card also plays a vital role. The wired network card is the best choice. Just open the task manager directly, click "Ethernet", and then right-click "View Network Details" in the graphics area.

If the link speed shown here is "1Gbps", it means that you are using a Gigabit card. In addition, you can also observe whether the name of the network card contains the word "GbE", and the 100-megabyte cartoon often indicates FE.

In contrast, the judgment of wireless network card is a little more complicated. Here we mainly refer to its protocol standard.

Generally, there are only three kinds of wireless network cards that can be seen in the market: 802.11n, 802.11ac and 802.11ax. Of course, some manufacturers simply call them Wi-Fi 4 (4th generation), Wi-Fi 5 (5th generation) and Wi-Fi 6 (6th generation).

If you want to reach the Gigabit standard, you have to reach the minimum level of 802.11ac(Wi-Fi 5).

However, it has something to do with routers again. If your router doesn’t support 802.11ac, it’s no use. And the method of inspection,Is to open the task manager and directly check the protocol standard in the name of the network card.

The wireless network card can usually check the name directly, and it is not recommended to check the link speed in the details.

By the way, it is not recommended for wireless network cards to check the link speed as mentioned before, because wireless networks are all backwards compatibility. Sometimes, due to the environment and routing, your link speed is often not the highest support rate of wireless network cards, which will lead to misjudgment.

Another point is that 802.11ac needs 5G frequency to reach the highest speed, but 5G signals are generally difficult to penetrate walls, so when there is a barrier between the user equipment and the router, it will also affect the final wireless connection rate.

Of course, it’s been a long time. If your broadband has obviously increased (you can test it with the website https://www.speedtest.cn/), then you don’t have to worry about whether your equipment is Gigabit.

After all, we only look at the results, as for the process … … Leave it to the children who need it!

Let’s just see the results!

Write it at the end

Finally, usually, the speed increase can only be experienced during the download process. Because of the small traffic demand, the general broadband can cope with it, and there will be no obvious feeling after the upgrade.

In short, if you have met the above requirements, you can "upgrade" your broadband. After all, free wool is not white.

Finally, I wish everyone a happy upgrade!
