what is a web accelerator/booster?
An “accelerated Dial-Up” or “Dial Up with a booster” is a form of dial-up access that utilizes the newer modem standard v.92 to shorten the log-on (or handshake) process, and then once a connection has been established the provider will selectively compress, filter, and cache data being sent to the users home. The overall effect is that your Dial Up speed for browsing most standard web pages is increased.
