So what does GameRail offer? They do not offer a product that reduces existing internet congestion, or reduces your hops across the internet, or even a rip in the time-space continuum. Instead, they offer an entirely independent network available to gamers and gaming traffic only. This network is a nationwide, all-fiber, thing of glory. That's right, it is a giant fiber-powered private network just for us.

You simply sign up for the service and run the GameRail software. You see, they have partnered with many ISPs and game server providers so that you can still play on the servers you know and love without having to change a thing. Your game servers will not need to be modified either. GameRail is working with any and all ISPs and GSPs (game server providers) that will listen in order to provide a direct peering, or connection, to the GameRail network. When direct peering is in place with an ISP or GSP, the packets that are encapsulated by the GameRail software automatically make the jump to the GameRail network. This avoids the regular internet entirely.
