Internet Service Providers

Getting online for the first time can be a daunting job for many people.

The first thing you need to consider is your ISP (Internet Service Provider)

You need one that offers reliable uninterrupted service, preferably with a high speed option. (trust me on this one, as you surf more, and get more email, you'll get more impatient with a slow connection) After examining several popular ISP's we chose NetZero as our first choice in ISP providers for several reasons.

Net Zero is available in more than 6,500 cities across the United States and Canada.

Net Zero is a proud supporter of Ronald McDonald House Charities® (RMHC).

1. What is NetZero HiSpeed?
NetZero HiSpeed is an exciting new product from NetZero that accelerates your Web surfing experience using your existing phone jack and modem. NetZero HiSpeed INCLUDES the NetZero Platinum service and requires NO additional equipment and NO waiting! It is the high-speed surfing solution with the convenience of dial-up.

2. What gets Accelerated?

Web pages - HTML markup and JavaScript

Graphics including JPEG and GIF images

Text

E-mail on the Web

Streaming media, audio and video files

Secure pages, such as those used for online banking and credit card forms

Files and attachments such as music or digital photos

3. How does it work?
Before the text and graphics that make up Web pages get sent to your phone line, NetZero HiSpeed compresses them using a proprietary technology. Less data is sent so your surfing experience is that much faster! In addition, NetZero HiSpeed stores elements of frequently visited Web sites so they load faster on future visits.
