Our goal is to build a bigger, better and faster Internet with the help of the world.
How Does OodleNet share my Internet connection?
OodleNet does not directly share your Internet connection. Instead of sharing your Internet connection, with everyone, all the time OodleNet only shares your download and upload speed when someone else needs a file. For example; Normally, If you wanted to watch a video on YouTube. Your computer sends a request to the server to send that video back to your computer. You can only download that video as quick as your Internet connection allows.
But, if you are using OodleNet, your OodleNet device will ask the other nearby OodleNet devices to download some of the file using their Internet connection. All of the devices that your OodleNet device connects to, over LTE-Advanced, will discretely send the parts of the video they downloaded for you. This will greatly improve you Internet connection speeds.
Won't OodleNet just slow down my Internet speed?
No, One key factor to the way OodleNet operates is that the “owner” of a particular Internet connection always has priority use of their own bandwidth. So, If they are using their Internet connection to download an HDTV program, their OodleNet device will not participate in any other transfers until it is finished with its own download and has some available bandwidth to share.
Also, the true nature of Internet traffic is that it is "bursty" which means that it is not a solid stream of continual data. There are short periods of data blasted through the connection at high speeds, separated by long periods of no data at all. You may have a 10Mbps connection, but you simply do not have a continual 10Mbps of traffic. OodleNet takes advantage of bursty traffic patterns to utilize the communications channel more effectively by using the unused bandwidth of several Internet connections to send and receive data.
How compatible is OodleNet?OodleNet leverages existing standards in order to create blazingly fast Internet. PCs, Macs, iPhones, Android phones, iPads, Tablets, Smart TVs and all other existing smart devices all have the ability to connect to the internet using WiFi. Currently, OodleNet is compatible with any device that can access the internet over WiFi, no matter the Operating system or software. Windows, Android, iOS, Linux, Blackberry and Chrome are all compatible with OodleNet. You simply connect your OodleNet device to your existing wireless network. If there are other OodleNet devices in range of your device you can begin experiencing faster internet without paying extra every month.
Won't people abuse OodleNet technology by leeching or getting free Internet?
Not on our watch, OodleNet will be built with anti-leeching technology that will require OodleNet devices to be connected to the Internet. Sorry kids, no free rides yet. We are hopeful that in the near future OodleNet will be become adopted as a global standard built into all devices. This could bring about free Internet for everyone everywhere!
If my neighbor is using my bandwidth via Oodlenet will any illegal activity will be traced back to me?
Absolutely not, OodleNet does not directly share your Internet connection. Instead it simply shares the packets that make up the file that your neighbor is trying to download. OodleNet doesn't change the way packets get handled. All packets contain a destination. They have to know where they are going. That final destination is going to be your neighbor's IP address, not yours. Authorities would immediately trace any illegal activities to the source.
We aim to revolutionize something we are surrounded by on a daily basis. It’s something that we witness every minute; Something we are immersed in every second of our lives. The internet is so much more than cold data. It can be warm. It can make you laugh and make you smile. The internet is not made up of machines. It’s made of people; people sharing moments and making memories. It’s the ability to create feelings and to inspire from thousands of miles away. Our efforts to describe it are fruitless because it is the people of the internet that ultimately define it.
The innovative technology has the potential to be deployed into every wireless device. Imagine an Internet where virtually every device like routers, switches, computers, tablets, Smart TVs, smart phones, media players, radios, game consoles, you name it, all have this incredible technology built into them. In the near future OodleNet™ will get universally adopted as a wireless standard. When that day comes, the next generation of internet comes along with it, Internet G2™!
OodleNet arose out of the desire of mine for faster Internet access. I lived in an area where I should have been able to get high speed Internet access but there were no companies that offered it in my immediate area. All I could get was a slow dial-up connection. To be sure, in the early days of the Internet, there were only bulletin board services and websites with simple text pages. There weren't any multi-media style websites that are the norm for today and the Internet connection bandwidth requirements were very modest compared to today, but the connection was still the slowest part of the experience, as it still is today. I figured that my local telephone company would be providing the capability for me to get real Internet access at any time, but several years went by and I was still stuck with a slow dial-up connection. It seemed that there wasn't enough demand for Internet access in my neck of the woods for them to bother providing a faster service. More years went by and FINALLY cable services were becoming available that offered "HIGH SPEED" Internet access. No more waiting for those slow dial-up connections. But, alas, even the faster cable connections were still too slow for real Internet connectivity and they still were not available in my area.
Then came along DSL which offered much faster Internet connectivity through the telephone company’s system but I still couldn't get it in my area. Finally fed up, I came up with a plan to use my telephone line and my neighbor’s telephone line together to double my Internet connection speed. My first experiments were to run multiple dial-up modems in my computer and running wires from my neighbor’s houses to mine. This was not very popular with my neighbors.
When WiFi became available I used it to connect modems at my neighbor’s houses to mine, thereby getting rid of the wires. This was the beginning of the Oodlenet.
I filed the first patent for the technology in 2001. After 7 long years and in 2008, I got my first patent on the technology granted. To my great surprise it was a Pioneering Patent, which means that it is so unique that there is nothing like it. Since then I’ve gotten a second major patent and have two more on file to protect this amazing technology.
I thought that Internet companies would jump at the chance to adopt this technology in order to offer their customers blazingly fast Internet access speeds, but they have continually ignored my attempts to get them on board. It seems that the “status quo” is perfectly happy giving you the limited service that they say you can have and charging you a fortune for it. This is why we are approaching you directly. We want to grow a grass roots movement to convince Internet companies to give you the fastest Internet speeds possible. We have been waiting for the Internet to get up to our speed since the day it started, and now, with OodleNet, the wait is over.
