Codot has always been one of the fastest ISPs in the UK, invariably featuring in Internet Magazine's web hosting rankings. The fastest has just got faster, offering ADSL connection direct to our backbone. Now you can download at speeds of up to 2Mbps. Up to 40 times the speed of a modem, and no call charges? It all sounds too good to be true. And it was until we hooked up to BT's national ATM network to deliver this new technology to selected parts of the country. ADSL stands for Asynchronous Digital Subscriber Line, and it is delivered over your standard telephone line. Codot arranges the installation of three boxes that transform your standard phone line into a super-fast data line. You can still make phone calls, even when you are online, though the phone calls are still charged by BT in the standard way. It is Asynchronous because the download and upload speeds are different, maximising on the available capacity of the line. The upload speed is 256Kbps, whereas the download speed is selectable, from 512Kbps to a blistering 2Mbps. ADSL is unsuitable for web hosting, as ADSL is a variable bit-rate system. The available bandwidth for uploading may change, slowing the server performance. Downloading, however will be an altogether new experience. Drawing on Codot's proven network speed, you will be able to access the coming generation of multimedia applications in a flash. Because ADSL is an always-on network connection, you'll be able to receive your email as soon as it is sent. And you won't be looking at the clock, as your connection is the same price regardless of how long you are connected. ADSL is available in two forms. Either single user, suitable for the home, or multi-user, suitable for business or the home power-user. Codot offers the business option only, though we will be offering the home option in the next month or so when BT have released the product. Like all ISPs offering ADSL, we cannot install the single user product until it has been launched. As with all current ADSL offerings in the UK, the speed of the connection will vary, as you are sharing it with other users. With our product, you will be sharing with up to 20 other people, which is the lowest contention any provider can offer you. Many exchanges in the UK have been upgraded to support ADSL and, at launch, around 400 exchanges will be able to support this new technology. These exchanges are within the following locations: Aylesbury, Birmingham, Belfast, Cambridge, Cardiff, Coventry, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds, London, Manchester, Milton Keynes and Newcastle. Call us now on 01978 790202 to see if you are in an ADSL-enabled area. Please note we cannot connect your iSDN or other digital line to ADSL. Only standard PSTN lines can connect.
