Boost the Speed of Your Internet Applications by Up to 400% Faster

The average home or work network has two or more computers accessing the internet simultaneously. Whether they are sending e-mail attachments, making internet VoIP phone calls or playing games online, their applications will have an effect on one another as each application fights for bandwidth in a specific network. The result is a slowdown in ALL applications called "internet lag."

The Broadband Booster is a plug and play device that is placed between your internet modem and router that eliminates "internet lag" in your network.

Just a FYI:

It will not work on it's own with a combo DSL/Cable/Modem/Router. One needs to add a switch.

Unless your combo units allows you to disable the internal router then it's all go

[bitstopjoe]

This is true, just bring your own router.
Some combo units are a bear to disable though...

Your right, Some modems ( Like Yours I ASSUME) you can't disable the damn router part which is'nt right IMO. And actually the new big motorola DOCSIS 3.0 Modem im using with very high speed it actually has a built in router also BUT with 4 to 5 changes in the logon setup it can be 100% disabled so i can use a Linksys gigabit router external. With u if your IP provider is nice you maybe able to buy your own modem without the router part and that would be nice BUT they usually will NOT make your monthly bill cheaper as i ran into that. At this point i can't use a Motorola Surfboard like sb5100 because it does'nt even handle the speed and it's DOCSIS 2.0 only anyway good to about 20Mbps anyway. Or your IP will BS u and say YES you can disable the router part but if u use your own you will lose quality.......BS, I seen a Netgear i turned that off but i had the guy return it as it was cheap. What is'nt...Everything is stamped Made In China almost and thats because instead of U.S. companies giving U.S. ppl jobs they goto asia etc and pay them $ we would'nt even think of working for, I.E. MJ tech support and at least some of netTalks too
