General Internet Access Questions
Q. Which network provides my Internet access?
A. Our unlimited Internet access is provided by top-tier Internet Service
Providers (ISPs).
Back to top
Q. Will I pay toll charges?
A. Most U.S households can dial up via a charge-free telephone number. (Click
here to check for Internet access numbers in your state.) To find your Internet
access numbers, confirm the numbers we give you with your local telephone
company. If you do find that you must pay charges to use the Internet through
us, check back often as our network is expanding rapidly towards full coverage
of the United States.
Back to top
Q. Should I install another telephone line?
A. It is not necessary to have more than one phone line to access the Internet
from your home. Keeping in mind that your main line will be busy while you are
online, you may want to consider whether you'd prefer to use a voicemail service
that will pick up automatically when you are online, or to install a second
phone line. Please note that you are solely responsible for any and all charges
associated with installing a second phone line.
Back to top
Q. Will I get a busy signal when I try to dial in?
A. Our Internet Service Providers work hard to keep busy signals to a minimum.
Making sure our network performance is always excellent is a top priority and we
are constantly pursuing new ways to build out our capacity.
Back to top
Q. What does PeoplePC Online do about "spam"?
A. "Spam," commercial email you don't want and didn't ask for, can be a real
headache for people with email. We stop spam by deleting it before it gets to
you, using a technique called server-level filtering. Our powerful filters
automatically screen incoming messages for telltale signs of spam in
transmission protocols and message headers. As a result, messages identified as
spam are blocked before they reach your inbox.
A staff of email security experts is dedicated to preventing spam and other
forms of email abuse. In constant contact with experts around the world, this
team regularly monitors the network for suspicious activity, while continuing to
develop new prevention techniques.

Q. Can I still use AOL?
A. Yes, but you will be missing out on great benefits. AOL has a billing option
called BYOA that lets you access its services through your own Internet Service
Provider. Current AOL users can find out more about this service under the AOL
keyword "billing." And don't let your Instant Messenger service keep you from
coming to us because you can still use that too.
Back to top
Q. Can I change my Internet access number after registering as a member?
A. Yes. Here's how:
1. Click on the 'PeoplePC Online' icon on your desktop.
2. Click 'Modify this location' on your Dialer.
3. Follow the Dialer Wizard steps. Select as many local numbers as possible so
that we can dial the best number for you. Remember to check with your phone
company to verify that you won't be charged for the numbers you are adding.
Back to top
Q. Can I use my Internet access account to dial into my office or other
networks?
A. Yes. Your membership comes with standard dial-up software.
Back to top
Q. What should I do to keep my kids from seeing Internet sites that might not be
appropriate for them?
A. The best way to protect kids on the Internet and to teach them to be smart
Internet users is to spend time with them when they are online. Use the Internet
together. Talk about all the educational resources, entertainment, and global
information the Internet has to offer.
It is also extra smart for families to keep their computers in an open area
where adults can observe and converse with kids as they surf the Internet.
If you are interested in installing software that restricts the sites your kids
can visit, a variety of products are available for sale online and at your local
software retailer.
