Internet Service Provider

UNI no longer is affiliated with any particular vendor for additional remote Internet access. UNI still maintains the traditional 30 hours/month modem pool for UNI students, faculty, and staff.

There are many services offering high speed dial-up access (up to 56kbps) as well as high speed offers via cable modems at extremely competitive prices. Check the telephone yellow pages under "Internet" services.
