Important Points:
- Poor internal house wiring, electrical
wiring, and other phone line devices may interfere with this service.
- Phone line filters may be required to reduce
noise on telephone equipment. IGS supplies one with the modem, and
additional filters can be purchased from $8.00. See our
hardware
page for current prices.
- Connection and transfer speeds are NOT
guaranteed and vary with phone line quality and distance from the Bell
Canada electronics servicing your telephone line. TThe
closer you are to the Bell electronics and the better your phone line is,
the closer you will get to the maximum numbers.
- IGS does not accept responsibility for the
connection from your house to Bell, however, we will assist you in the event
of a problem.

assignment of one IP and tech support for a single machine, the client

one, we do NOT provide tech support or consulting for your internal network.
If you wish to consider a network, we suggest a hardware router, several
models from various manufacturers are available. Windows 98 2nd edition or
later may
also be used as a modem sharing device, however configuration and network
issues are solely the client's responsibility, IGS does not provide support
in this area.

ultra-lite account is included at no extra charge with any extra hours
charged at $2.00 per hour.
