1NationOnline

Pros: Free. Offers POP3/SMTP services, as well as Usenet newsgroups.
Cons: I'm Bill Gates-- send this review to ten friends and you'll each get $1000 and a copy of Windows ME! Believe it? If so, you'll have no trouble whatsoever connecting to 1Nol.

Trying to find a banner-free free ISP is marginally less irritating than attempting to bail out a flooded basement with only a plastic teaspoon at your disposal. Trying to find a reliable ISP out of the ever shrinking banner-free ISP group is like...

Pros: Nope, nobody are Pros.
Cons: FriendlyWeb from Friendly-Tech. Not recommended.

I'd love to say wonderful things about OneNationOnline, or 1nol.com, as it is called, but they won't let me! I should be able to say great things because they have a lot of what I like in an ISP--they're free, they have no banner ads, they...

Pros: no banner ads, free
Cons: bad connection, can't use Netscape, no paid to surf program works.

I have been using 1Nation OnLine for 3 weeks now and I have a lot of bad things to say about it. Actually you don't even need so much time to relize that this one sucks.

I have decided to sign up for 1National OnLine after using Freewwweb for...

Pros: They Fixed the Connectivity Problem
Cons: It only works for a limited number of people

I panned One Nation Online, and they deserved it. But I also promised that if they cleaned up their problems, I'd post a new review. So, they kept their promise, and cleaned up their problems, and I'm keeping my promise and writing a new review.
...

Pros: Pop3 mail - NewsGroups -No Banners - Fast easy sign up.
Cons: None yet - I will keep you posted.

It is sad to see the demise of good free ISP's For the reasons's see the comments of this old epinion.


I have tried many of the "Free ISP's" in the USA. Most do not live up to expectations. Some you have to put up with the...

Pros: Ad-Free
Cons: Unreliable, No longer free

On June 16th 2000 WorldSpy was inquired by Juno and no longer was accepting pending sign-ups or serving its current users. After that, many people started searching for a new ad-free ISP. I was one of those people.

Again a lot of people,...

Pros: Bannerless, POP3 & SMTP email, no enforced time limits
Cons: Dialer has caused 1.4 million deaths so far.

There once was a girl who had a curl in her hair...
And when she was good, she was very good.
And when she was bad, she was horrid.

That describes 1 Nation Online perfectly. Such an utter pain in the behind when it isn't working,...

Pros: None now
Cons: No Longer free and part of OWOL

AS of Oct 31,2000 1NOL is now a member of OWOL(One World Online) a Provo, Utah internet operator. Your email settings and your dial-up will no longer operate effective as soon as the plug is pulled in your area, and that should be by Friday. According to...

Pros: No annoying ads to view, and FREE!
Cons: I have problems running surf2pay bars

A free isp that has no banners!
I have to admit, it does sound really good. After searching for another free isp since Worldspy and Freewwweb are directing you to Juno(don't know what that is all about) I discovered 1nol.com.
...

Pros: Quick Surfing With No Banner Ads
Cons: Isn't offered in DSL yet

1 Nation Online is a fantastic free ISP. They claim to be expert on troubleshooting the internet. Their software takes about 2 minutes to download on a 56K and has capabilities to fix errors within the program.

Quick dial up is featured as...

Pros: FREE, good connections
Cons: Sometimes can't get on if the net is busy

I've tried many different free ISPs and this one (1Nation) is now topping my list as the one to use. How often we've heard the statement "in the right place at the right time" and how true it is about this ISP. They have the right product at...

Pros: A free ISP with no banners
Cons: Will not work!

Well, after the demise of another free ISP, I came here to read up on other Free ISP's. I thought I would give 1 Nation a shot. After sitting through a near 2 hour download, I finally was able to start the installation.Upon dialing in to establish my...

Pros: No banners, never a problem connection
Cons: New problems now, possible change is service?

Edited on 10/31:

Well after writing my glowing review below, everything was great for a month. Suddenly, things aren't so great anymore. While trying to sign on, I got the message that my username/password was not recognized. I found this...

Pros: It's free and it's bannerless
Cons: Your computer is joined to this ISP at the hip and other browser add-ons (like Callwave's Internet Answering Machine) won't work with it.

I've edited this opinion because a new solution to the problem of having to trade ad banners (or the slightest shred of privacy) for free web access has come along. Here, I moan and groan about the trials of 1 Nation Online; what I've written is still...

Pros: No Ads, Good Speeds
Cons: frequent trouble connecting

One Nation Online is one of the last Free ISP's that I am aware of that does not subject you to banner ads (Worldspy and Freewwweb went under). When I can get connected, this service is great (50,000 bps plus). There have been days on end when I have...
