ISP Accelerators for dialup....Worth It?

I,ve noticed frequently that these so Called "Accelerators" are popping up in all ISP's. Some free, some at an extra cost.

Can They help, or put another way, do they increase your speed??

Are they worth it???

56k is 56k. From the client end there isnt much you can do to speed it up. Compression may help, but you are still moving it across a pokey link.

From what I tried a few years ago : NO.

0.2 K/s is the best you will gain.
