Standard Accounts.
These accounts give you wide flexibility in how you connect to the Internet.
Using a PPP connection and a dialup account, your machine becomes a node directly attached to the Internet;
some of the more popular programs, for example graphical Web browsers like Mosaic
and Netscape, require this kind of connection. Brings the Internet right to your
doorstep with simple dialup access.
With more people doing business on The Net, an Internet presence is becoming a
requirement of the modern economy. Any size business can be set up easily. Use a dedicated
connection to provide your clients with 24-hour access to your information, services, and
support.
Our Internet services are constantly evolving to meet your needs. Check back often for
the latest news about how we can help you get connected.
Multiple dialup points include Akron, Cleveland, Medina, Mentor, Elyria, Lorain, and
Ravenna. Check our Technical Information for the updated list
of local access numbers.
