FireFox when compared to IE has many features which can be turned on and off. Users can play with the tweaks for enhanced user experiences. Here is a short tutorial on how to speed up your internet connection with FireFox. Follow these steps:
- In FireFox address bar (where you type the website address) type about:config and hit enter.
- In filter box just below the address type in network.
- Then scroll down half way untill you see network.http.pipeling. Click on the right column to change the value to True.
- Now below this row change the value of network.http.pipeling.maxrequests to 10.
- Then click ok and restart FireFox. Done!
Note:
The Mozilla knowledge base cautions that not all servers support pipelining, and so some websites might not work with this setting activated.

Also, setting the MaxRequests to a value greater than 8 actually results in the variable being set to its maximum value of 8.
