ALSO can you subscribe for less than a year? ie can you say switch on for 1 mth or 2wks whilst in Cyprus, and when out of the country switch off and not pay whilst away and return and again switch on and pay when back in the country?
We fit a small (1.2m) dish to your home or office which is connected to a satellite modem. The modem has a LAN connection that can be connected directly to your PC or to a local area network so that several PC’s can share the connection. We have customers that are setting up ‘community’ services using wireless networking.
No telephone line or expensive GPRS connection is required for our service.
We offer speeds up to 4M download and 2M upload with costs starting at CY£55 per month for an unlimited 512K down and 128K upload connection.
The hardware costs CY£995 plus installation.
yes, you can subscribe for a minimum period of one month and switch the system off so that you incur no charges when you are out of the country – on return, a quick call to our sales department will get your connection re-instated within ten minutes.
