PurSpeed XL 15x Web Accelerator
Surf The Web And Download Email At Up to Fifteen Times Faster!

Now you can surf at near DSL speeds through any of our over 35,000 dial-up locations throughout America!

BusinessFirst! is very pleased to present PurSpeed XL - a web accelerator that will increase your browsing and email download to near DSL speeds. PurSpeed XL is available only through those ISPs that offer the very highest quality dial-up access and we are excited that PurSpeed XL has selected, trained and certified BusinessFirst! to distribute and support their phenomenal web accelerator. As a result, you can now enjoy the very best of both worlds; the low cost and portability of high quality dial-up internet access and the high speed of DSL.

There is a lot of attention paid these days to "broadband" internet access such as DSL and cable, because they offer much faster speed than traditional dial-up. But there are also drawbacks such as lack of availability, high cost and lack of portability. Depending on your location, broadband (if even available) can cost as much as $65/month and if you travel, you cannot take it with you as you can our dial-up service. However, for a small additional charge you can now enjoy near DSL speeds from any/all of our almost 40,000 dial-up locations nationwide. It works great at home, at work or on the road! What could be better?

Standard Dial-Up		With PurSpeed XL

What is PurSpeed XL?
PurSpeed XL speeds up your Internet experience, by up to fifteen times, using your existing dial-up phone line and modem. You do not require any extra equipment. PurSpeed XL allows you to surf at near DSL speed, making PurSpeed XL the high-speed Internet solution with the convenience of dial-up. It is easy to install, runs seamlessly and doesn’t alter any of your existing software. You can also control the amount of compression vs. speed gain yourself.

How does it work?
With traditional dial-up methods, the text and graphics that make up web pages get sent from the server to you over your phone line. Because of the large amount of data required to be sent, this process can be painfully slow. PurSpeed XL compresses this data using a proprietary technology, and sends it over your existing dial-up phone line. This compression process allows a smaller amount data to be sent – up to fifteen times less – making the download time of your web pages and your online experience that much faster. As an added download time reducer, PurSpeed XL stores elements of the web sites you visit frequently eliminating the need to re-download them every time you visit these sites.

What gets accelerated?
PurSpeed XL compresses the following elements of web pages in order to send the information to your computer faster:
