About
The WildBlue Optimizer is a tool that makes key setting changes in selected browsers so that you have the optimal web surfing experience with your WildBlue Service. In general, the Optimizer:
- adds a proxy server to the browser configuration
- sets the browser home page to www.wildblue.net
- For Windows users, it adds a Program group with shortcuts for the Customer Portal, WildBlue Help, and the Outlook Configuration Tool (XP and 2K only for Outlook configuration)
- For Mac users, it adds three shortcuts on the desktop for the Customer Portal, WildBlue Help, and to WildBlue WebMail.
The technician installs the WildBlue Optimizer for Windows during the installation and provisioning process. If needed it can be downloaded again.
Macintosh users must install the Optimizer and then the Apple Broadband Tuner, available at Apple.com.
The Windows .zip file requires a zip utility to extract the files. Some Mac user may need a zip utility to extract the Install Now file.
