Q:What is 'High speed dial-up'?

A:'High speed dial-up' is still dial-up over the phone line, however it utilizes software and/or hardware compression utilities (accelerators) that super compress the data so that more data can flow over the phone line at the same rate of speed.

Example: think of data as people and people have to go from the bus to the air port, if a taxi carried people back and forth, going the speed limit and through traffic it would take many trips back and forth for the taxi to carry a large number of people from one place to another. Now imagine we send a bus instead. Even going the same speed limit and through the same traffic, the bus could carry at least 6 times the amount of people that a taxi could, thereby reducing the time it takes to get the task completed.

In the same way, accelerators compress the data making it possible for webpages to down load up to 6 times faster.
