How can I optimize my settings to achieve faster speeds and send and receive less data while dialing into my company network?

For optimized results, work in “Offline” mode and synchronize periodically to send and receive company email. Also, save attachments or drag them into desktop folders before opening them (rather than double-clicking them in the email).
