hi guys! does the firmware upgrade (say from R2F to R7A) will also boost the GPRS connection?

Ive already upgrade my software but gprs is still the same. For me, it really depend on the connection.

I went from R2b to R7A and haven't noticed any change. I agree that it depends on the quality of your connection and whether the wind is blowing from the south after a full moon the night before.

Im not sure, but i think ive read here that gprs was in t68 3+1 channels at the begining and it got 4+1 in newer sw. If im not mistaken (it was long time ago) it was posted by Cytech, so ask him. However if ur provider doesnt let u use max speed, u wont notice any difference

Everything! dont you know how GPRS works?
GPRS stands for Global Pixie Relationship Studies and focuses on their breeding patterns. It is a well known fact that pixies like full moon nights and come out in their thousands. When the wind blows from the south it carries the ciro-stratus clouds which contain approximately 10,000 metric tonnes of pancake mix. The ciro-stratus clouds rain down the pancake mix which is collected by the now 'outside' pixies. When collection is complete they all go back to their homes to make pancakes.
Now comes the technical part: Upon smelling the pancakes, Lord Pixitron, Ruler of the valleys of edsapproject declares a day of promiscuous sex. Ergo, they breed more and GPRS is more successfull.

Just in case our trans continental humour isn't understood, yes I am ridiculing you.

Well yes......sort of. Late summer is the best time for pixie breeding but they are pretty active the rest of the year.
