You are already getting the 'max' out of that thing.
Overclocking these miners has been discussed in depth before in many other threads, tl;dr you would need to completely redesign the entire device because 1. it uses a fixed clock to control the ASIC's frequency and 2. the power circuitry is only sufficient to power it at it's 'stock' speed.

according to bitminter im running at 335.8 and approx. mint speed is 0.0079 bitcoins per day! Anyone know the best way to get the max out of these little things
My little ASIC usb is running at 334m/hash earning me the princely sum of 64 cents a day. Minus what it takes to power my laptop. Unlike mining with a GPU, it doesn't slow down the computer so it's a fun little demonstrator. YMMV
Bandwidth requirements are very low. OP didn't specify their connection speed, but these are fine on the average Cable/DSL connection.
Energy is about 2.5-2.6 watts per.
ROI is at least 1 year (possibly not ever) at the current price/difficulty.

Profit? what is that? 
Figure that right now, at this moment, one will make about US$1.50 per day and every ten days it will make a little less.

Hi,
I've been using bitcoins for a while, but I'm thinking about getting into mining for the first time.
It seems like the USB asic block erupter with a Raspberry Pi is the easiest way to get into it.
However I've got a few questions. Sorry if they've already been asked, but I can't find the info I'm looking for.
- What is the average profit per unit that people are experiencing? (I'm planning on buying one, save the profits, buy another one etc)
- How much bandwidth do they use? Would I be able to run them on the same net connection that I use to browse etc or would I need a specific connection just to mine?
- How much electricity do they use?
Thanks guys
