My ongoing search to find a dependable, FREE ISP continues to be ongoing!
This week I received a card in the mail from FamilyConnect. They offer a deal that I have not seen from any other ISP. You pay a $29 one-time set up fee. Then, you receive a generic survey (no personal identifying info) to fill out each month. If you fill out the survey in the time allotted, that month is free. If you do not fill out the survey, you pay $19.95 for that month. They offer 56K connection, 5 email addresses, and a 30-day money back free trial. We have found it better than any of the free ISP's we've tried so far. They have no ad bar to run. (Hooray!) PLUS, you get a free "family filter" that automatically filters porno and illegal sights. You don't have to download this, it is done at on the server. A great feature if you have kids doing a lot of surfing!
We have experienced certain peak time periods when it is hard to stay connected (Saturday Morning!) But, other than that, it has been a pleasant experience. I'm going to take my full 30 days to evaluate.(We are at day 5) If my opinion changes during the next 30 days, I will let you know!!!!
