Network Associates is your " Premier Connection " to the
World Wide Web ! Now Parkersburg has the Best connection to the
intertnet, bar-none !
People in the Mid-Ohio Valley simply enjoy the Internet. We know, because we
have hundreds of subscribers logging-onto our internet service every day! We aren't
like AOL and Compuserve. We have not created a small world in which you will live.
Our service allows people the freedom to surf the World Wide Web on an unlimited basis for
one flat fee per month. There are no startup fees or hidden charges of any type. We
will bill you just like your present phone company does or put it on your credit card if
that is what you want. Another Big reason people choose to surf with us is because
of our user-friendly Technical Support, Both Online as well as
Offline. The Technical Support side of our web site should answer most of your
questions and if not, just drop us a line and we will gladly help you out.
There's a term called 'connection speed'. How fast the information goes in,
controls how fast it goes out. We are connected to the Internet with what is known
as a 'T1' line. This line carries electronic information at a very high speed, (
1.54 MB ). That means if we get it fast, our subscribers can get it fast, too.
Our newly installed OC3 rack ( Fibre Optic ) provides stability and reliablity as
never before. It should also be noted that we are the Only ISP in the area that has
"No Hops" between us and the main carrier in Washington, D.C.
Information about the City of Parkersburg, West Virginia, many of its businesses,
organizations, people and schools can be found at www.parkersburgweb.com. Many of those world class
sites have been designed
right here at our location in Parkersburg. People subscribe with us for many
reasons, but the biggest reason is so that they can communicate with others through their
websites and E-Mail. There is also a little bit of information about Parkersburg in
general and the Mid-Ohio Valley just in case someone is looking for a friendly place to
visit or if you're just curious.
To subscribe right now, it will cost you $17.95 a month
and it comes with Two free E-Mail accounts. Other
E-mail accounts are also available should you have a need for them. Those people who have
faster modems, like a '56k
X2' or K-Flex modems can also connect at the same low rate. Our service has been
upgraded with the V.90 standard, several months ago, so Any modem with V.90 will connect
at the fastest speeds possible. For those people who have "Just Got-ta Have More
Speed" ... they can also connect to us with what is called an 'ISDN' line. This line
is very fast ( 128K fast ) and you may do so for an additional charge per month and of
course the ISDN account also comes with Five free e-mail accounts. It should be
noted here, that ISDN requires a second phone line to your home and it is a "metered
line" from the phone company. This means there will be extra charges levied by your
phone company for ISDN service. There are lots More E-Mail accounts available should you
need them. Just let us know the specifics and we will set them up for you right away.
As far as connecting to the
Internet is concerned, we offer to our new customers the ability to have their Internet
connection setup by our professionals, as a free service, as long as your machine doesn't
demonstrate problems. If it does we will have to talk about it and a one hour minimum
charge (or more, depending on the problem) may apply. The only thing we need is your
tower or desktop unit. You can leave all the cables, monitor and your mouse at home. We
have plenty.
We also 'host' websites.
Personal web sites, Business Web sites, schools and organizations all have websites on our
system. The Network Associates Web Site enables any and all other
web sites that are hosted by us to be viewed on a "Global Scale", 24
hours a day, seven days a week. Network Associates is also
proud to be associated with " Parkersburg on the Web
" as a World Class Internet Site.
People who have personal and or family websites can host them with us and use up to
approx. 5 megabytes of memory for their site. If additional space is needed we can
accomodate you. Personal web sites get their site listed in the "Parkersburg on the Web"
area automatically! Businesses web sites can also be hosted on our server. For a
modest fee, businesses can get consistant system administration and maintenance to insure
it's 'up and hot', all year round.
Smart people choose to list their business websites in "Parkersburg on the Web".
All hosted business web sites get regular system maintenance and arrangements can be made
for updates as needed. There are some businesses that have what is called a 'Domain
Name'. This means that they have a unique Domain Name that is pointing directly to
their site. This registration of a Domain Name contains a special designation such as
'.com' or .net and sometimes '.org' and '.edu' at the end. There is a small Domain
Name registration fee involved in order to register your Domain Name and then the normal
monthly charge for hosting your website.
We would like to serve you if you want to get on the Internet. We're here to help if we can! |
