- How does the Dual
Modem Account double your speed?
It operates on the
same principle as ISDN. But with our dual account, you're not
restricted to using a bonded modem, you can use a bonded modem
such as a Shotgun modem from Diamond Multimedia or you can use
two separate modems. They both have their advantages and
disadvantages. This account requires 2 phone lines. Back

Access Numbers all across the US & Canada?
We indirectly buy
access from three backbones, GTE, Frontier, Global Center, and
Intermedia Communications. This gives us incredible access
coverage. Back to Top

- I have access with
another ISP. I would like to switch to Savy2k but, I don't want
to lose a lot of customers because my E-mail address changed.
This really isn't a
problem. First, if you have your own Domain Name your E-mail
address won't change, because when we put your site on our
server, we will file the necessary documents with Inter-NIC
to point your incoming E-mail and website requests to our
server. Your E-mail address will still be [you@yourdomain.com]
If you don't have
your own Domain Name, first we can help you get one for only $60
for the first 2 years. However, if you don't want to get a
Domain Name, you can have your current provider forward your
E-mail for a while. If they won't do that then you need to get
away from them as soon as you can because you deserve better
service than that. And in the future when you need to change
servers because you are growing or for whatever reason, you will
have even more of a headache then. We will be happy to send to
your customers a change-of-address notice in their E-mail. All
you have to do is give us a list. Back

- I have been told
that I can get free Internet Access, why should I pay for it if
I can get it free?
First, I would like
to caution you that no one does anything without some kind of
motivation. Some people do things to help the community and the
only thing they receive is a thank you. That is their movation.
They feel good helping others and they are helping themselves by
improving their community. That, however, isn't the reason some
companies offer free Internet access. As a matter of fact, no
monthly bill is about the only benefit to these Plans. I told
you that I would build a page to help you weigh the pros and
cons of free access, well I started to but it just got longer
and longer so let me try this.
- The companies that offer you
free access want to put an ad on you browser screen. They
compare it to an ad at the web sites you visit. It's not, it
is on your screen, and you can't get rid of it while you are
on their access.
- When you sign up for their
service, you have to give them a lot of personal
information. You can expect that information to be sold to
every marketing agency that has the money to pay for it.
- Most of the ones I checked out
said that they reserve the right to change their agreement
at any time. They promised not to ever start charging for
access but they had to put that in there for legal purposes.
If they never charge you why does that have to be there? I
know of no law that says you have to give yourself a way out
of an agreement. If they do start charging you, how do they
make up for selling your information?
- I sent a bunch of questions
about the ad on the screen and the privacy issue and the
disconnects, etc. to 12 free access companies on Jan 10,
2000. I have yet to hear from them. I will keep you posted.
- If you don't mind having your
information sold and if you don't mind having an ad on your
screen and if you don't mind being disconnected everytime
you step away from the computer, you can make more money
just by using one of the services that pay you for being on
the net. One I looked at pays you up to $1.20 an hour. That
beats $15 a month all the way. And you can still surf the
net or play games anytime you want without the ad by just
not signing on to their service. Click

- I am on AOL and I
like it, I just don't like the toll calls and I get a lot of
busy signals. Can I use Savy2k to access AOL?
Yes, you can use
Savy2k to access AOL and save money too. AOL currently charges
$9.95 per month for their services if you BYOA (Bring Your Own
Access). That is $12 off their full service price of $21.95. If
you are paying for toll calls or are using AOL for only a few
hours a month, you could save money by using Savy2k and you
wouldn't have all the busy signals. We have plans that start as
low as $10 per month. You could save $2 per month right there. Click
here for step-by-step instructions on how to do it. Back
