OOIDA ISP High Speed accelerates your Internet access through proprietary text and image compression, content caching and other network optimizations.

If you have a slow Internet connection (such as a dial-up or wireless connection) with bandwidth of less than 300Kbps, you will experience a significant degree of acceleration using OOIDA ISP High Speed.

OOIDA ISP High Speed significantly speeds up web page access. To achieve this speed up, proprietary lossless compression is applied to text, html, xml, javascript and style sheets. Proprietary image compression is applied to gif images, jpeg images and Flash content.

OOIDA ISP High Speed also accelerates email traffic (POP3 and SMTP) using lossless compression.

OOIDA ISP High Speed does NOT speed up file downloads (over FTP or file sharing programs), streaming audio/video and HTTPS (secure web sites)
