3 Web Accelerator

Ruby Seven · 2007-06-29 14:02:57

Hi there I'm new to this forum. I have a 3 modem and I read somewhere about a Web Accelerator product which would compress my data. I can't find it on the 3 web site and their customer care hasn't heard of it. Anyone know anything about this? Thanks a mill Ruby

But most web page servers and your browser do the compression anyway.

It can't make the other end use compression. So it won't help email.

It's of no value, and does nothing your browser can't do unless you are using Netscape 1.0
