Do all ISP's throttle speeds/WiFi Blast?
I had read that all internet service providers throttle your internet speed after the first couple of months in order to get you to upgrade to their next tier of service.
What they supposedly do, especially if you are on satellite, such as Hughesnet, is split your speed between two channels since your router and modem are interconnected and can electronically alter your speeds of connection times.
Supposedly, WiFi Blast, can combine the split channels to increase your connection times for online browsing and speed up your internet.
I'm skeptical of the WiFi Blast product because all it seems to do from the reports that I read, is boost your WiFi range, not increase your connection times by combining the two channels.
I was curious if anyone has tried the WiFi Blast product and experienced increased connection speeds.
So far, the product support page for WiFi Blast claims that they have sold over two million units and counting. That doesn't seem like a lot compared to the U.S. population count of users online by way of any internet service providers.
I'm just looking for real feedback from anyone using the WiFi Blast product to confirm the authenticity of their claims that the product actually combines the two channels for faster internet connection speeds.
I don't care about the "in home WiFi range boost" which I know it can do, I care about whether or not it can boost internet connection speeds that it claims it can do by combining two channels.
Since the cat is supposedly "out of the bag" so to speak because of this product, I heard a rumor that throttling internet speeds is going to be a thing of the past because ISP's were busted doing this shady tactic.
Gimmick or not?
