 Wholesale Dial-up Internet Access for ISPs:

Our wholesale dial-up products are designed for ISPs that wish to integrate outsourced dial-up Internet access into their product line.  It's also a cost effective way to replace existing physical POPs, obtain a presence in all 50 states, and eliminate the financial risks of building new POPs.  By outsourcing your dial-up business your well-earning POPs don't have to subsidize the costs of your poor-earning POPs.

  • No minimum commitment

  • Extensive multi-network footprint ensures best-cost coverage with redundancy

  • Toll-free Internet access in the US and Canada

  • Thorough v.90 and ISDN coverage with v.92 in many locations

  • ISPs can have an unlimited quantity of users

  • Usage-based (per hour) pricing offers flexible user quantities and user management

  • User-based (per subscriber) pricing options available

  • Level 2 problem troubleshooting

  • Private user management means you can manage your users via your own Radius server or Database

Complimenting your existing dial-up coverage:

Most ISPs realize it can be costly using their own equipment to provide a dial-up POP in new areas.  PRI circuits and network hardware all cost money even when not in use.  If you're obligated to provide uninterrupted power and climate control for additional equipment, the proposition gets more complex.

You can eliminate these risks by outsourcing the POP to Vnet.  You only get charged for the amount the users consume and since we don't charge you per POP location, it's the same price to add coverage in the 48 states as it is to cover your local region!  This means you can target a specific area for coverage while testing the market for new users anywhere in our coverage area.  Even with coverage of the entire US, you can restrict the areas you serve for any reason.  Maybe you want to serve customers only in your time zone, or maybe your ISP's theme is to only serve customers in your home state.  Remember, even if you sign up only one new customer using one of our POPs, you earn money.  There's no concern with return on investment since, in effect, you haven't "invested" in that POP.

Vnet can provide you with several networks to chose from.  Most ISPs will choose networks that have the best coverage in their target areas.  It becomes easier to retain customers that you'd ordinarily loose when they moved away from your coverage area.

Outsourcing dial-up is easy to implement from an engineering perspective.  Our networks are compatible with your existing Radius server and requires minimal setup on your end.  You retain all the control over your users and are free to add and delete users at will.  We're also able to work with user lists stored on MS-SQL and MySQL servers.  DHCP and DNS services are automatically provided to you dial-up customers.

Liquidate all your dial-up equipment.

  • fixed costs

  • no maintenance

  • sell your existing dial-up equipment

An increasing number of ISPs find outsourcing the best way to handle their dial-up business.  With fixed costs and fewer responsibilities it's easier to manage your dial-up business.  It goes without saying your coverage area will increase dramatically.  When you consider all the costs of operating your own dial-up network, sometimes even your best-earning POPs, can be dragged down by the costs of your poor-earning POPs.  Here's a list of considerations when maintaining your own dial-up POP:

  1. PRI circuits

  2. Internet bandwidth (T1)

  3. access concentrators and individual modem cards

  4. routers

  5. hardware maintenance contracts

  6. uninterruptible power supplies

  7. DNS caching servers

  8. climate control

  9. POP security

 

 Bulk Rates for Dial-up Internet Access:

Our wholesale dial-up products can easily be used for corporations that wish to give roaming employees access to the Internet while traveling.  Our networks are compatible with the Internet Authentication Service included with Microsoft Windows® Server.  This means you can centrally manage your roaming users in the same fashion you manage them now. 

  • Toll-free access in the US and Canada

  • User access can be controlled using your pre-existing Windows® Server, Radius Server, or Database

  • Usage-based (per hour) pricing

  • User-based (per subscriber) pricing options available

  • Level 2 problem troubleshooting

This service is also ideal for coin-operated amusements and vending machines that are network-ready.  Independent owners of Automated Teller Machines see dial-up as an alternative to costly leased lines.
