Does anyone know of an excellerator that I can down load to speed up my entire internet connection. I have dial up from windstream,i live in middle of no-where,KY and dont have access to high-speed intewrnet here, PLEASE HELP.
My internet connection is very slow dial up thru windstream and they dont offer high speed where i live and neither does anyone except Hughes Net,but they are way to expensive. Not an option for me at this time. I used to have dial-up thru southeast telephone and they gave me an excellerator that sped up everything.

Have you asked Windstream about the availability of an accelerator?
"Accelerating" a dial-up connection connection is a lot more than an add-on or plugin for a web browser. There is a "backend" to cache popular content, a method of "compressing" images, caching the original image, and delivering the "compressed" image to the browser. Basically, if your ISP doesn't offer that feature, you can't add it with an "accelerator" alone.

Thanks for taking the time to respond to my question. No windstream doesnt offer that,i asked and they have no intention to do that in the near future. They plan on offering highspeed to everyone in the future,but as of now they dont offer it in my area and have no plans of replacing the phone lines in my area anytime soon either. so until they replace the lines in my area,its not available . I am glad you told me that i cant add it ...Doug
