Speed up Broadband

If you have broadband and still want your pages to load even quicker i would suggest toy get a program called google web accelerator. It sends all of the webpage requests from your computer through their high speed servers and shortens the time taken for the pages to load. Once the file is requested it will be cached on their servers until it changes, so it is like every site is run on a very fast server.

Once installed it adds a plugin to firefox and internet explorer which does the actual work.

It also has a counter which tells you how much time you have saved.

Ihave found it is symilar to those old dialup accelerators but they never really worked and this is free too.

Give it a try and tell me what you think what you think.:) http://webaccelerator.google.com/

It looks like you may not notice the diffrence. It really worked for me, after a while you can tell it works. You can see it clearly when you visit a website that normaly lakes a long time to load.

well if its google they might have some way to reroute from there fast servers to you which would provide a cleaner connection by going through google as a middleman otherwise no idea how it could effect how fast a page can load.

Never seen someone saying it works, tho it MIGHT work for a very slow connection or multiple outgoing / incoming connections.
