Tired of Slow Dial up?
WFECA.net now includes a new service for our subscribers!
This new service will allow for up to 5x faster download
speeds than regular dial up. This new service is
Wfeca.net's LightSpeed, a dial-up accelerator! Best of all -
it is FREE. That's right, no cost to you. While other
ISP's are charging from $2 to $6 per month for this
service, we are including this at no extra charge.
What is Dial Acceleration?
Dial up isn't dead, but it is evolving. Dial acceleration
is the latest technology designed for dial up Internet
access.
Dial acceleration offers a way to extend the capabilities
of dial up Internet access. Accelerators compress images
and Web pages so that they can load more quickly.
Wfeca.net's LightSpeed allows you to select the level of
image compression, enabling you to customize your surfing
experience. If the you set the level too high, yielding a
fuzzy image, the accelerator allows for quick adjustment.
Wfeca.net's LightSpeed compression technology also extends
to e-mail attachments, and has an integrated pop-up blocker
and a banner ad remover. In addition to faster-loading
pages, you gain privacy by requesting Web pages via
Wfeca.net's accelerated proxy server. With Wfeca.net's
LightSpeed, the request to access the Web page no longer
comes from the user's machine, and the IP address is not
displayed or captured.
Note: Compression technology does not accelerate all sites—
or all online activities. Secure sites, such as those used
for online banking, some Webmail applications or sites
served from “https://” do not receive the benefits of
compression for privacy reasons.
