INTERMITTENT DIALUP ACCOUNTS

Welcome! We are pleased to make the following types of Internet access accounts available to VSC affiliates:

DIAL-ONLY | SINGLE_USER DIALUP
EDUCATIONAL DISCOUNT PROGRAM |  REMOTE DIAL-IN | ADDITIONAL SERVICES

Intermittent Dialups are our most popular accounts. They are reliable, can be accessed by local numbers throughout Vermont, and are inexpensive. The Dial-Only Account is just $12 per month, payable monthly or annual prepay. Our standard Single-User Dialup is available for $20/month. Credit cards as well as checks, ACH, and money orders are accepted for payment.

Our Educational Discount offers savings of 20% for a Single-User Account to qualified persons. Proof of full-time employment or full-time enrollment in an accredited degree program is required. A 33% savings may be reached by electing to prepay 8 months, for which you receive 12 months of service—4 months free! Dial-only Accounts are not discountable.


Dial-Only Account

If all you want is dialup access without the features of our regular dialup accounts, this is the account for you. Our Dial-Only Accounts are being made available as stand-alone access accounts, they do not include web space or other webhosting services. They carry no discount, and may be be paid for on a monthlyor annual basis. For speedier dialup connections, you may want to look into adding our Dialup Accelerator for just $2 a month more. The Accelerator can speed up browsing and email by up to 5 times that of a regular dialup connection. Read more

ROAMING ACCESS

We provide you with 2 ways to access your account while vacationing or on the road: Roaming and Remote Dial-In. Each has it's own niche, but they supplement each other nicely.

Note: with either service, be sure to return your dialer to a local 7-digit SoVerNet access number when you return so you don't pay long distance or Remote Dial-In charges!

National Roaming
(Note: Use of Roaming numbers requires changes to your dialer set up. Read through the info below and click the setup links to see what needs to be done.)

Two hours per month of National Roaming are included with all our base login accounts! We have 12,000 numbers across the country for just about all of the lower 48 and Hawaii (Iowa is pending, as is Alaska). There is no need to take the time to sign up for it and wait for it to be added—it's right there, ready to go when you are! If you run over the 2-hour allotment, there will be a $7 charge that month—an email notice of the charge due will be emailed to the primary account name. Note: the 2 free hours are shared by the primary account and all email-only subaccounts.

If there's any chance you'll run over the included 2 hours, National Roaming-300 is available, for up to 300 hours per-month of access, as an Additional Service. The charge is a flat $5 per-month regardless of how much access time is used. Add it and forget the clock (at least, for 300 hours)!

Before you can use a Roaming number you need to make changes to your dialer's number and login settings so you can be authenticated when dialing in. Some localities require only a 7-digit number for local as (as in Vermont) others may need 10 digits (area code + 7 digits), still others want a full 11-digit number whether local or LD (1 + area code + number). We've provided a local check procedure for you as well, so you can see if a number in any specific spot is considered to be a local call, regardless of number of digits required for dialing it.

Remote Dial-in
For long-distance access where there is no Roaming number available, or for those who move around a lot and don't want to fuss with constantly changing access numbers, we offer a Remote Dial-In Service via an 888 number. Travelers can take advantage of this dial-in number to access SoVerNet from anywhere in the continental US or Canada. The cost of Remote Dial-In service is $.11/minute, billed in full-minute increments, with a minimum charge of $1.00 if the service is used during the month. Payment will be by the method currently selected for payment of your Internet service account. Confirmation of the charges will be emailed to your main SoVerNet account each month. When you sign up, your confirmation will include the 888 number to be used.
