Why your internet feels slow — even on fast connections #
Many internet slowdowns are not caused by your ISP or bandwidth limits.
They are caused by unwanted background traffic competing with what you actually want to do.
This includes:
- Ads loading from multiple external domains
- Tracking scripts embedded in websites and apps
- Background connections from smart devices
- Malicious or poorly designed services constantly retrying connections
All of this traffic consumes bandwidth, increases latency, and creates unnecessary network noise.
How Firegate improves network responsiveness #
Firegate operates at the network level, sitting between your modem and router.
Instead of running apps or browser plugins, it filters traffic before it reaches any device.
Firegate automatically:
- Blocks ads and known tracking endpoints
- Stops unnecessary background connections
- Filters high-risk and unwanted domains
- Prevents malicious traffic from consuming bandwidth
By removing this traffic early, your network has less congestion, allowing legitimate traffic to move faster and more consistently.
Why this feels like “faster internet” #
Firegate does not increase your ISP speed — but it reduces the delays that make the internet feel slow.
Users typically notice:
- Faster page loads
- Less buffering on video streams
- Smoother gaming and video calls
- More responsive browsing across all devices
This improvement comes from lower latency, fewer retries, and cleaner traffic flow — not artificial speed boosting.
Works automatically, for every device #
Because Firegate protects the entire network:
- No apps are required
- No device configuration is needed
- Phones, laptops, smart TVs, consoles, and IoT devices all benefit
Even devices that cannot run ad blockers or security software still receive protection and performance improvements.
Privacy-first by design #
Firegate performs all filtering locally:
- No cloud processing
- No traffic inspection sent off-network
- No usage profiling or data collection
Your data never leaves your network.
The result #
A quieter network means:
- Less background noise
- Fewer interruptions
- More bandwidth for what matters
A cleaner network doesn’t just feel safer — it feels faster.
