What is REALWEBACCEL?
REALWEBACCEL speeds up your Internet experience, by up to six times, using your existing dialup phone line and
modem. You do not require any extra equipment. REALWEBACCEL allows you to surf at near DSL speed, making REALWEBACCEL the high-speed
Internet solution with the convenience of dial-up. It 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.
What gets accelerated?
REALWEBACCEL compresses the following elements of web pages in order to
send the information to your computer faster:
- Web pages - HTML markup and JavaScript
- Graphics including JPEG and GIF images
- Text
- E-mail on the Web
What will not be accelerated?
Although REALWEBACCEL is able to compress many different types of online
data, there are a few which cannot be accelerated:
- Streaming media, audio and video files
- Secure pages, such as those used for online banking and credit card forms
- Files and attachments such as music or digital photos.
How does it work?
With traditional dialup methods, the text and graphics that make up Web pages 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. REALWEBACCEL compresses this
data using a proprietary technology, and sends it over your existing dialup phone line. This compression process allows a
smaller amount of 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, REALWEBACCEL stores elements of the Web sites you visit frequently so you do
not have to re-download them every time you visit these sites.
