Will I still be able to use my Instant Messaging
program or Email account with your service?
back to top
Our ISP is designed to allow you to use all forms of internet
communication. Many ISP's, such as AOL, have instant messaging
programs built into them. In this specific case you would need to
download and install the AIM (AOL Instant Messenger) program to
continue using that specific service. In most cases your screen name
and passwords do not even need to change!
Many email providers allow you to use their service right from their
homepage. Hotmail, MSN, and Yahoo are all good examples of this. In
order to gain access to your old email you would simply logon with our
service, go to the homepage, login, and check your old email account.

What does the word "Unlimited" mean? back to top
Our unlimited offerings are unlimited NOT dedicated. They are meant to be unlimited while sitting in front of the computer surfing the Internet.
Connections are not meant to be kept connected constantly while the end user may not even be home (ie. using ping software utilities).
For example, the connections are not meant to be a 24 hour music download service for example. In general, ISP's can exist because they sell shared modem service which means that the modems can't be taken up ALL of the time by the same end users.
If the modem is connected to one user virtually all of the time then the modem is not really shared at all, it's dedicated.
