Been a long time....

Used to install squid years ago for some projects.  Squid is an old friend.

Question, and beg pardon if I skew terms.

Say one has a DSL line into a home that connects to a wireless router that ends up with many devices connected to it. Laptops, desktops, pads, phones, network capable DVD players, etc etc etc. A lot of circuits get created and funnelled out through the DSL router. The service provide sees this and implements throttling of the network service. We can see measurable dips in the service based on the traffic load.

Can Squid, does squid help this situation? As in devices connecting to a Squid proxy server and creating what the service provider sees as ONE stream, instead of many? Reducing the throttling potential?

I know I have framed this awkwardly but hopefully this gets the idea across. Can anyone offer and answer and correct my conceptions about how IP traffic works?
