accelerates your Internet access through proprietary text and image compression,
content caching, and other network optimizations. top Will
I benefit from using Hypernet Web Accelerator?  If

with a bandwidth of less than 300Kbps, you will experience a significant degree
of acceleration using Hypernet.

Web Accelerator significantly speeds up Web page access. To achieve this speed
up, proprietary lossless compression is applied to text, html, xml, javascript

images and Flash content. Hypernet
also accelerates email traffic (POP3, IMAP and SMTP) and FTP (in the passive mode)
using lossless compression. Hypernet

make sure that you have configured Hypernet Web Accelerator properly; this includes
the correct username, password, server name, and server port number. It is also
important to check if you have a valid internet connection. This

DSL or cable modem, is detected. If
the problem persists, please contact Xlntenet for further assistance. top
