A Word of Caution

Volunteers have tested the PPP system and did not experience any problems. Please note, however, that all instructions are general in nature, and may not reflect your exact situation. CCIL is not be responsible for any problems the instructions provided may cause to your computer system.

Known Incompatibilities

FAQ

610-431-2839 is not a local number for me, is there another number I can use?

CCIL provides four access numbers depending on your location within Chester County. See the Access Number Listings.

What if doesn't work?

Contact the help desk at 610.431.2673 or email help@ccil.org.

What about dialup text access?

It will continue to be made availible, although plans have been made to upgrade that as well, but this should not result in an interuption of service. You may, however, notice differences in the login and interface. We will announce any major changes before they are made.

Will I still be able to get to the same services as I did when I used Slirp?

Yes. You will still be able to telnet to ccil.org, view web sites, check email, and access any other services you currently do on the Internet. Plus, you will be able to do more with your CCIL connection than before with the improved speed and technology of the new system.
