If you were wondering just how speedy your internet connection is, the CBS Software-developed application SpeedConnect Internet Accelerator is here to provide an answer to your question. And if you want to make your internet connection a bit faster, the same application is here to lend a helping hand.

To enjoy the functionality the SpeedConnect Internet Accelerator application has to offer, you will first have to get a 2MB installation file off the web and onto your computer. To install the application, just run the downloaded file and follow the instructions presented by the setup wizard. You will get to choose the installation directory and choose if you want a desktop shortcut or not.

When you run SpeedConnect Internet Accelerator, an icon will show up in the system tray and a window that presents the network activity (upload and download speed, total amount of data you uploaded and downloaded) will show up above it. Right click the system tray icon to access the application’s Options menu and to access the SpeedConnect Connection Tester and SpeedConnect Internet Accelerator.

The SpeedConnect Connection Tester will put your internet connection to the test and present you with info on speed, latency, and connection quality. After running a test, you can get a score of, say, 91.3% and a connection quality rating of “Good.”

The SpeedConnect Internet Accelerator will do just what the name says – it will optimize and thus increase the speed of your internet connection. You can choose between Optimization Mode 1 through 5 or the Automatic mode. To make things easier, there’s SpeedConnect Wizard that will guide you through the necessary steps of optimizing your internet connection. The functionality provided by the accelerator can be evaluated for free for a period of 10 days.

The SpeedConnect Internet Accelerator application makes it incredibly easy to test your internet connection’s speed and apply optimization settings that will make it faster.

Pros

Tests your internet speed and offers various optimization modes to make it faster. There’s a SpeedConnect wizard to guide you through the necessary steps of optimizing the internet connection.

Cons

The connection optimization feature is free to try for an evaluation period of 10 days.
