Campus Dialup Service to End June 30, 2007

The campus modem pool was originally created to enable faculty, staff, and students to have remote access to the campus network at a time when commercial dialup options were limited or unavailable. Eventually, this remote access service evolved to provide Internet access.

The vast majority of users have switched to other commercial options over the years, and the modem pool usage has declined dramatically. Because of this decreased usage and the availability of other options, the number of modems supporting the campus dialup service is continually being reduced.

For these reasons OIT will eliminate dialup service completely on June 30, 2007.

For more information, see the OIT Helpdesk announcement on Dialup Decommissioning.
