hawking broadband accelerator

Latency, or the amount of time it takes your network to process a packet of information, is the bane of great voip internet phone sound quality and, believe it or not, can also cause you to miss your shot when playing Call of Duty 2: Xbox Live. Hence the newest item on my family-generated to-do list: get a broadband optimizer or accelerator that priorizes traffic in such a way that certain persons, who shall remain unnamed, may continue to successfully frag the bad guys and lay down smoothly coordinated blankets of cover fire for their allies.

That's where the Hawking HBB1 Broadband Booster comes in. Actually it comes in between your broadband modem and the router, where it quietly takes care of streamlining network demands on your broadband connection. At around $80, it seems a sound investment to make when the fate of the entire world is resting in your hands. Or, maybe you'd simply like to find a better voip sound experience. Either way, the HBB1 has you covered.
