DSL service available in my area? |
| |
Our
DSL service area includes Central and Southwest Florida.

in all areas. To verify availability, please call us toll
free at 866-TNNI-NET and ask to speak with a DSL specialist.

I use my own DSL router? |
| |
You
can purchase the DSL router from us directly or provide your
own so long as it meets our connectivity requirements. Please
note that technical support for third party equipment will not
be offered by Terranovus.net and must be obtained by the original
vendor. Call us for a list of compatible equipment. |

you install the ISDN line? |

lines must be contracted and installed by your local telephone
system operator. Once installed, we can provide the Internet
connectivity on it. |

|
| My
DSL installation kit came with small phone plugs. What are these
for? |
| |
The
small phone plugs that came with your DSL self installation
kit are DSL line filters. You must attach these to all extensions
on the same line as your DSL router. |
| |
|
| Can
I host my servers on your commercial accounts? |
| |
Our
dedicated commercial accounts are engineered specifically for
this task. Many accounts come with at least one static IP. More
can be ordered if needed. |
| |
|
| Will
I need a firewall? |
| |
Our
DSL routers have a robust firewall and NAT capabilities built
right in. Whether
or not you require an additional firewall depends on your network
requirements. Please contact our technical support specialists
to discuss your particular needs. |
| |
|
| Can
your monitoring service watch over all my servers. |
| |
Our
remote monitoring service can watch over as many devices as
you wish. All that is needed is a public IP as well as rule
allowing us through your firewall. Our monitoring service can
monitor all services including DNS, Echo Server, FTP, Gopher,
HTTP, IMAP4, SNMP, NNTP, POP-3, Radius, SMTP, Telnet, Time Server,
and ICMP. Notifications can be sent via SMTP mail, TAP pager,
cellular paging or beeper. Please note that the charge for remote
monitoring is based on the number of IP devices you have, not
the number of services. |
