ISP Information:
Another extension to the ATA interface that adds a 50% increase in top speed over ATA/66, getting to 100MB/second, up from 66MB/second. This standard also adds some additional error-checking not found in earlier ATA standards. Like Ultra ATA/66, ATA/100 requires an 80-conductor cable to work at full speed.
ISP Glossary:
Ultra ATA/100 - I have a mother in Florida living on a fixed income and it would help her alot to be able to call me when she needs to. After getting set upIf you call the business office, you can probably get a businessnumber in any exchange you want, and then have it forward anywhere youwant.Should be about $25/month, plus usage.-Joel[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Yeah, but if he did that, why not justget an 800 number -- much cheaper -- for mom's use in calling himusing Bell all the way. In that case, a long haul via Bell from mom tohim would be much cheaper that a combination of 'extended toll' formom and a Vonage virtual number for himself. PAT]
