Greetings — here are three practical ways to improve web speed on 3G devices.
1. Use the APN
APN (Access Point Name) settings differ by network and can affect performance. Try alternative APN profiles provided by your carrier or found online to see which works best for you. For Jio APN guidance, see:

2. Use a VPN
A VPN can sometimes improve effective speed by changing routes, avoiding ISP throttling, or using compression features. Performance varies by provider and server location. Popular VPNs to try:
1. Droid VPN
2. Turbo VPN
3. NordVPN
4. ExpressVPN
5. Surfshark
6. Private Internet Access
7. TunnelBear
8. Hotspot Shield (free)
9. Windscribe
10. Speedify
3. Use a JioFi (Wi‑Fi hotspot)
A portable 4G Wi‑Fi hotspot (JioFi) can provide faster 4G access to 3G-only phones via Wi‑Fi. This is often the most effective option if your carrier offers a compatible 4G hotspot device. JioFi devices are available around Rs. 999. You can purchase one here:

Notes
– Real speeds depend on network coverage, signal strength, your data plan, and local congestion.
– Test changes (APN/VPN) and measure speeds to confirm improvement.
