Silk Colours are very poor on T Mobile dongle

[Nutter Punter]

Is there any way I can increase the colour definition of the silks? On the wifi the silks are very easy to see but on my dongle it is just a little bit shite.

Dongle is connecting at HSDPA 50.0Kbps so it is not a rubbish connection.

Very strange. It doesn't have anything to do with the connection, the same images are downloaded whatever. We don't have alternative images, only those supplied by Betfair. Are you saying that on the same PC you are getting different images depending on the connection? I've never seen this before.

That is exactly it. Same laptop and in same location. If I turn off the wifi connection and use the dongle my colours drop to the point I am squinting.

I have to use the dongle today and am struggling.

I wonder if T-Mobile have some sort of performance cap on colours?

I've never heard of anything like it. I will do a bit of research.

It might help. Just because I've never heard of it doesn't mean it's not happening

Definitely seems they are reducing the quality of the jpeg files through their proxy. Found this on another forum.

If you've just got a USB dongle its probably that you've got the USB530 stick (Half black/half silver), to improve the quality of the images all you need to do is go to the Web'n'walk manager

Press the "More" button and click "Speed Manager", then "Settings".

You can then change the slider to change the image quality, the higher the quality the slower the images will load and the more data/bandwidth it will use. After you have selected the desired setting, just click "Ok".

I'd reccomend you test out each of the settings until you find one that you are happy with.

If you happen to have one of the black/pink (USB 110) sticks, you can change the settings by going into the Web'n'Walk manager and going to "Tools", then "Options", then "Optimisation", and you can change the settings as described above.

If you're using the white dongle, you need to download the "web'n'walk USB Web Accelerator software", available at http://tm.feedbacklab.com/display/suppo ... ccelerator which will allow you to change these settings again.

I have found the settings in the dongle software but changing the speed optimisation slidey bar does not affect the pics.

It looks like T Mobile have got it frozen on shite quality for me.
