Your connection to the Internet will always be reliable due to two major factors; first, we use high-speed rack mounted Patton Electronics and Lucent digital terminal servers, and secondly, we maintain a very low modem to user ratio.

What is a Dual Unmetered Account?
The Dual Unmetered Account does not allow two computers to dial up to the Internet at the same time, you'd need two separate dialup accounts to do that. It is for people that have "Shotgun" style modems to achieve a faster connection to the Internet. This is pretty rare, and difficult to setup, but basically it is a computer that has two modems tied together by special software. The two modems connect via Multi-Link Point-to-Point Protocol (MLPPP) with two separate phone lines and the software shares a single IP address. These two separate channels are "bundled" together so that your computer sees a single (up to) 112k connection to the Internet. Since this style setup uses two separate phone calls, you have to pay your telephone company for an additional phone line.
