A fast Internet connection is almost useless if you're not trying to squeeze every performance drop out of it. And that's exactly what SpeedConnect Internet Accelerator wishes to do, trying to optimize the connection and make everything a bit faster when going online.
The application may seem a bit difficult to use at the first glance, but the help manual included in the package comes to the rescue, providing an impressive amount of useful information.
The main window is full of options, so you may need a minute or two to see which feature is which. In case you still find it hard to use, SpeedConnect Internet Accelerator also provides a detailed wizard to assist you while trying to optimize the network connection, so it all comes down to following a few steps.
There are four tabs in the main window, and in case you go for “Quick Optimizer” everything is so much simpler. Just pick the connection type, the optimization mode, the network adapter to optimize and hit the “Optimize” button.
On the other hand, geek users will definitely take a look at the “Network Settings” and “Extra Settings” tabs, thus getting a chance to play with the MTU settings, change TCP Receive Window Size, TTL, maximum segment size and many other advanced options.
In addition, SpeedConnect Internet Accelerator also comprises a connection tester that will analyze your Internet connection, conduct a few speed tests and tell you which are the areas to be improved to get an even greater speed.
Although it all worked quite fine during our test, we'd say it's better to make a backup before applying the new settings, just to be sure nothing goes wrong and breaks down the Internet connection.
On the good side we must mention the impressive range of features, but also the help manual and the large amount of information it includes. At the opposing pole, there's the interface, which may need a minor facelift to be aimed at beginners too.
All in all, SpeedConnect Internet Accelerator is a decent solution to optimize the network connection and if you're OK with the price, you must give it a try as soon as possible.
