Cox: high speed Internet getting faster

The company introduced a new technology to its networks nationwide on Wednesday that boost Internet speeds during large file downloads. The technology, called PowerBoost, detects when a major download is in progress and finds space on the fiber optic network to move it along more quickly.

The boost is free for high-speed Internet customers. Cox says the bursts can decrease download times by up to 50 percent. The move comes as Verizon increasingly is moving into Cox territories in Hampton Roads and elsewhere with its high-speed FiOS Internet service.
