Windows 10: dial up speed with broadband

Yeah. That's what I say. What? I am using windows 10 Home edition version 1511 HP laptop 64 bit 8 gb ram 500 gb hd. I recently reinstalled windows and am experiencing very slow and sometimes incomplete downloads. I checked errors and read that my connection shows "Getchar Socket abruptly closed". I am lost here. I have current updates installed. Have troubleshot everything I can think of. I've run virus scanner. I've updated drivers. I've stopped any unnecessary services. I've uninstalled unused bloatware and programs. I first noticed my page loading time taking longer than before but it's terrible now. I have checked the hd and it checks out. the laptop is only a year old. I have searched online for an answer but it's all been Greek to me so far. I'm the only user so I can't blame anyone for this problem but me. Any helpful advice will be greatly appreciated. P.S. I posted most of this before. Now I've updated to the new version 1903 of windows 10.. But it's the same. I did a speed test and got 0.13 as download speed and 0.12 upload speed. I'm at my limit and don't know what to do. please somebody help.

How2 quickly turn on a Dial-up Broadband Connection?


Here and elsewhere I found how to create a Dial-up, broadband connection (sorry still using this old stuff seeing that I am at a university in China) shortcut placed on the desktop. B4 the shortcut I had to:
-1- click on the R-side of the task bar icon
-2- Click on the broadband strip on top
-3- Click on the connection
-4- click on Connect
Creating a shortcut from there (Settings -> Network & Internet -> DIal-up) onto the desktop actually creates an extra step since it defaults to VPN instead--and even if it didn't it would still be 4 steps.
Is this any way to make this a 1 or 2-step process?
Thank you

 

Is there a way to speed dial WITHOUT having to confirm the call? SPEED DIAL

Is there any way to make a call, speed dial, to any person in your contact list, favorites list, etc. WITHOUT receiving the message "Dial Jane Doe 555-123-4567? CALL-----DON'T CALL"?

I have people that I would like to call just by touching the contact but the phone has me (1) search the contact whether in phone tile or people tile, (2) then I must tap the contact, (3) then I must dial the contact, and (4) I must confirm that this is
the number I want to call. RIDCULOUS!!

I've downloaded (many) apps that have been suggested by other users but none have the feature. The Nokia Lumia 1020 and Windows phones are great devices but the Simplicity to use is gone in some cases. It's already been suggested to me that I should use
the "voice dial"; that's not the answer I'm looking for. I'm looking for a Simple, one touch, manual speed dial.

Is there any way to make a call, speed dial, to any person in your contact list, favorites list, etc. WITHOUT receiving the message "Dial Jane Doe 555-123-4567? CALL-----DON'T CALL"?

Thanks for any help

 

Dial-Up cable and Broadband

Normally if you have to "Dial" it's not broadband, Unless it's that AOL CR#%$.(not true Broadband).
