Internet Accelerator Direct
Let’s dismantle the myth. A true "accelerator" would have to rewrite the laws of physics. It would need to shorten the thousands of miles of fiber optic cable under the ocean. It would need to convince your ISP’s congested node to stop dropping packets. It cannot do these things.
For the frustrated user—waiting for a video to buffer or a PDF to load—the promise is intoxicating. The idea that a simple piece of software can magically widen the pipe coming into your home is one of the oldest tricks in the digital book. But here is the uncomfortable truth: internet accelerator
Every few years, a pop-up appears. It’s usually garish, featuring a speedometer graphic stuck at "half-mast" and a single, pulsating button. "Boost Your Speed!" it screams. "Install Internet Accelerator 2025!" Let’s dismantle the myth

The only problem, due to their size, is that they are easy to lose.

Hi Erich,
Raspberry Pi, DMA read and write functions similar to ARM?
read (SPI, SCI, GPIO) and write (SPI, SCI, GPIO).

Hi Carlos,
I’m sure it has that, but I have not used anything like this on that low level as on other ARM. With using a Linux a lot of the hardware is hidden behind the device drivers.
