8? How does web acceleration work?
The Fastnet Service web accelerator speeds up your Internet access by compressing images and text on web
pages before they are sent to your phone line. The compressed data travels over your phone line faster because there is less of it.
Fastnet Accelerated Internet Service also stores elements of frequently visited web sites so that they load faster on future
visits.
There is no additional equipment to install nor is there any additional configuration of your modem necessary. You simply have to download the
Fastnet Internet Service web acceleration software to get the faster speeds from your
computer's standard 56K modem. It's easy to install and doesn't include any annoying adware or spyware.

Fastnet Internet Service web acceleration can also be used to
block annoying pop-up advertising from invading your computer. Web
acceleration and pop-up blocker are only included with the ISPnetwave Accelerated
