NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. Jan. 28, 2002 (PRIMEZONE) -- Proxyconn, Inc. (www.proxyconn.com), a leading provider of Internet acceleration services, announced today the availability of the Internet Acceleration Service for Dial-up users. The service is available to ISP's, home users and businesses. Utilizing advanced compression and caching technology, the company deployed a nation-wide high-speed network, allowing for complete coverage in North America. The acceleration service boosts dial-up connection speed by at least 100%. Users with 56Kbps modems receive an effective speed of close to 100Kbps.
Traffic is directed through an array of proxy servers where the data is compressed and cached. "We have the best solution for accelerated content delivery and for the last mile problem", said Uzi Yair, Proxyconn's CEO. "Our service has received a wide acceptance by dial-up users. We are experiencing substantial growth in subscriber base on a monthly basis," he added. Proxyconn has partnered with several ISPs to deliver accelerated connection.
"ISPs love this solution for several reasons: The service reduces their bandwidth cost, it brings them an additional profit from a Gold/Premium Service, and last but not least, it reduces churn for them. All this, without an up-front cost," Mr. Yair added. Proxyconn charges $6.95 per month for the service.
