NewNet Broadband services offer a wide
range of features and options, offering cost-effective packages to suit
all requirements and budgets.
Backup dial access
All NewNet Broadband accounts are provided with a FREE of CHARGE backup
dial-up account. This allows connection to the internet in the unlikely
event of broadband failure via a modem and standard PSTN line. Calls
are charged at 0845 rates (actual call cost will depend on your line
provider).
Games server access
All NewNet broadband accounts provide fast access to online games
servers.
Anti-SPAM filter
All NewNet broadband accounts offer anti-SPAM filtering. Email is
filtered and either 'tagged' as SPAM or deleted - tagged items can then
be filtered by your local mail software (Outlook, Mozilla, Thunderbird
etc.) to a separate folder as required. Mail identified as spam and
then deleted will not reach your system.
Multiple PC access
All NewNet broadband services allow multiple PC access - making use of
either local network address translation (NAT) or dedicated static IP
addresses.
ADSL USB modem
NewNet offer a 'plug and play' USB modem to provide a single computer
with direct access to an ADSL circuit. The modem is shipped with the
ADSL micro-filter required to provide the ADSL output from a standard
ADSL enabled telephone socket and full instructions and CD for
configuring your system.
ADSL router
NewNet offer a pre-configured ADSL router to link your local network to
the ADSL enabled circuit. The router provides 4 ethernet ports with
integrated switching and ADSL modem. The router will be fully
configured with your circuit details and tested before being shipped to
you at the installation address.
Managed ADSL firewall
NewNet Business broadband accounts offers a managed ADSL firewall
option. The ADSL firewall blocks all inbound traffic to your network
whilst allowing all outbound traffic. If you wish to run public
services from your network we will unblock the following ports to
specific IP addresses:
20-21 - (FTP)
22 - (SSH)
25 - (SMTP)
80 - (Web)
110 - (pop3)
443 - (Secure Web)
3389 - (Windows Remote Desktop)
If you choose this option, a NewNet technical advisor will contact you
after your order has been received in order to determine your
configuration requirements. The charge made will apply to initial
configuration only - and subsequent configration changes will be
subject to additional charge.
Managed VPN
This option is for NewNet colocation or leased line customers that have
a dedicated firewall, provided and managed by NewNet.
In these cases, we will configure your managed firewall to act as a VPN
concentrator, and configure ADSL routers accordingly to access this
firewall.
