Web Accelerator – Change Your Settings for High Speed Internet Solution

A web accelerator can boost up your Internet experience, by up to six times, using your existing dial-up phone line and modem. You do not require any extra equipment, and it allows you to surf at much higer speeds, making an web connection optimizer the high-speed internet solution with the convenience of dial-up.

An optimizer is easy to install, runs seamlessly and doesn’t alter any of your existing software. You can also control the amount of compression vs. speed gain yourself. An internet accelerator efficiently stores and reuses elements (such as static text and pictures) of web pages that you visit so that pages download much quicker on repeated visits.

How Does an Internet Accelerator work?

With conventional dial-up methods, the text and graphics that make up webpages get sent from the server to you over your phone line. Because of the large amount of data required to be sent, this process can be painfully slow. An accelerator compresses this data using a proprietary technology, and sends it over your existing dial-up phone line. This compression process allows a smaller amount data to be sent – up to six times less – making the download time of your web pages and your online experience that much faster. As an added download time reducer, a windows accelerator stores elements of the web sites you visit frequently so you do not have to re-download them every time you visit these sites.

System requirements for Internet Accelerators:

• Dial-up Internet Connection
• Supported Internet Browser:
• IE 5+ or Netscape Navigator 4.7 +.
• Windows OS:
• Pentium PC 200MHz or better with Windows 98, ME, 2000, or XP
• Available Disk space: 5 MB
• System Memory (RAM): 64 MB of RAM recommended

Specifically, accelerators speed up the delivery of webpages four ways:

• Compression: It delivers text and graphics more efficiently, using a proprietary compression technology that significantly reduces the size of Web pages and page elements sent to your browser.
• Caching: It improves upon your browser’s caching ability. It intelligently retains and reuses Web pages and page elements that have previously been sent to your PC. That’s why the longer web accelerator is in use on your PC, the faster your Web pages will load.
• Persistent Connections: It uses proprietary techniques to carefully manage and optimize the communication between your modem and our network of servers through a persistent connection. This eliminates the time wasted re-establishing and closing TCP/IP connections.
• Optional Content Filtering: It lets you block unsolicited content, such as pop-up ads and in page ads, which contributes to long wait times.

Internet accelerator software speeds up your computer and web connection. It automatically turbo charges your Internet connection by boosting Internet data transport efficiency, and adapts your modem or high-speed connection to its maximum potential.
