Faster access
The major benefit of a alncom.net service is speed. At popular times customers using standard Internet Service Providers will find the speed of their connection drops as the number of users per 100 increases from 1 to 20 - 30. This increases the contention on the network (which is like congestion on a motorway causing traffic to travel slowly) and the service slows down. At alncom.net because we can offer a contention ratio of 1:1, whether you use the Internet at a busy time or quiet time, you will always get the speed that your modem supports. E.g. a 56K modem will always connect at 56K.

Cheaper phone bills
Internet users incur a cost for every minute they are online. By connecting at a faster rate, page delivery will be quick, downloads will be rapid and the time spent online will be less. The result being you pay less for accessing the same data.

Same charge per minute

No Monthly Subscription
