Use your telephone whilst on the
net |
|
Access the internet and make/receive
telephone calls at the same
time. No need for a second line (and the cost of a second line
rental!). No more missed calls or having to disconnect from the internet to make
or receive a call.

|
Always-on
connection |
|
Unlike a standard dial-up connection,
which makes you wait whilst your computer dials your ISP each time you wish to
access the internet, ADSL is always connected. No waiting to connect, no busy
tones, no disconnection after 1 or 2 hours.

Fast
Downloads |
|
Up to ten times quicker than a standard
56k modem dial-up connection.
|
|
Low fixed cost with no internet call
charges |
|
A set monthly charge covers all your internet
access, no separate bill for internet calls charges. No need to restrict
internet access to off-peak times - the fixed monthly charge entitles access
anytime - day or night, weekdays or weekends. With some ISPs now offering ADSL for less than
£20.00 per month (under £5 per week), this is a cheaper option than paying for unrestricted 24/7
dialup plus the cost of second phone line.

Excellent for
Gamers |
|
The lower pings, increased speed and
the always-on nature of ADSL make it a perfect choice for online gamers. No more
having to re-dial part way through your game.
|
|
Ideal for
Homeworkers |
|
With its low cost, always-on
connection and coupled with its ability for voice and internet to share a single
line, ADSL is the perfect choice for anyone working from home.

Enables Businesses to work more
efficiently |
|
Receive and respond to your emails
much more efficiently. With ADSL, you can check emails regularly - every few
minutes if required - without having to wait to dial up. This means you will
know almost instantly when you have email, enabling you to respond to your
customers and business contacts much more quickly.
With almost infinite resources available via the World Wide Web, a
connection such as ADSL means your employees will be able to access the
information they require much faster, whilst at the same time your company saves
money due to the low cost of ADSL.
You can even share one telephone line with your fax machine, which means
you can be connected to the internet and receive/send faxes simultaneously. If
your company already uses ISDN or leased lines, the costs savings by switching
to ADSL can be significant. |
