Q:How can I get a faster dial up internet connection? Signed: Byron, Texas
A:Hi Byron, try a dial up internet service provider that offers a free web accelerator. A Web Accelerator is very simply software designed to ‘speed-up’ your existing internet connection and deliver pages faster to your computer. Some web accelerators claim to speed your dial-up internet connection up to the same speeds as DSL. They do this through data compression and pre loading web sites onto their servers. Data compression is a data package that is shrunk so it can travel through the internet more quickly. Once the data is received by your computer, the software decompresses the data so you can see it on your screen.
