SPEED!
ADSL Broadband is fast, but
how fast? There are 3 different ADSL speeds, 256k, 512k and 1500k. 256k plans are
5 times faster than a traditional dial-up modem connection. 512k is 10 times faster,
while 1500k is an amazing 30 times faster than dial-up modem connections. This means
that a file which would take 25 minutes to download by a 56k modem would only take 55 seconds
using a 1500k ADSL plan.
CONNECTED 24 HOURS A DAY
ADSL Broadband has no time limits. Unlike
dial-up plans you don't have to worry about exceeding a daily time limit or being disconnected
due to a session time limit. Your connection is online whever your computer is switched
on.
NO SECOND
PHONE LINE
The only way with dial-up plans to use the
Internet and keep your home phone free is to install a costly second telephone line.
With ADSL Broadband you can cancel the second phone line. ADSL allows you to use the
Internet and continue using your telephone line. There are no dial-up charges with ADSL,
therefore no calls are charged to your telephone account everytime you connect.
MULTIPLE
COMPUTERS
With the right hardware you can connect
multiple computers to the one ADSL service. Purchasing an ADSL router will allow an
almost unlimited number of users on your Argonaut ADSL connection.
