Accelerator - How does it speed-up your web browsing and file download
times ? Browser Cache: When a Web page is requested, it is saved to disk. If it is required again, the disk copy is used. This technique is used in all web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer. PPPshar Accelerator Cache: In a proxy cache like PPPshar Accelerator, users request pages from a local server (the computer where PPPshar Accelerator is installed) instead of direct from the remote webserver. PPPshar Accelerator gets the page, saves it on disk and forwards it to the user. Subsequent requests from other users of the cache get the saved copy, which is much faster and does not consume Internet bandwidth. The real benefits accrue from using a proxy cache on a LAN with many users. Any new page accessed by anyone is stored in the PPPshar Accelerator cache. The next person to access that page gets the cached copy, at full LAN speed, rather than going to the remote source. Using a cache speeds up Web browsing & file downloading significantly. This may be a thousand times faster, or more.

Depending on how you configure the browser in the gateway machine, you can use one one client & gateway machine simultaenously using a 1-user license or configure proxy settings in the gateway machine's browser to use the 1-user license.
