DNX Solutions:
Connectivity DS1/DS3 (T1/T3)
The standard for stable high speed internet access. Also referred to as T1, these circuits offer speeds up to 1.54 Megabits per second. T1 circuits were originally designed to reduce congested New York City phone wiring which were filling up underground conduits. T1 uses four wires, for 24 phone lines. Each phone line can support 64Kbps of bandwidth, and once all 24 channels are bonded together, the T1 can deliver 1.54Mbps.

Other products include DS3 (T3), which are 30 DS1s providing 45Mbps. Let's face it, if you're in the market for DS3, buying it from a local ISP is not a good choice. We'll be happy to assist you in acquiring one nonetheless.

Is this right for me? Give us your telephone exchange, we can determine a price, as distance from the Telco office is a large determining factor. T1 is very stable, however a bit costlier than other solutions. This is the solution for high speed, mission critical internet access.

DSL
The digital subscriber line offers a variety of speeds from 144Kbps up to 1.54 Megabits per second, depending on your needs, and/or distance from phone company point of presence. DSL can either be symetrical, (SDSL), the same upload and download speeds or asymetrical, (ADSL), with download speeds being faster than upload.

Our DSL out-performs the competition, (including the phone company's product!). We can often service areas which others cannot, and/or deliver faster speeds.

Is this right for me? Give us your telephone number and address, we can determine available speeds and pricing. DSL is as stable as T1, but at a much lower cost.

ISDN
Originally designed for the video telephone, ISDN lines are two digital phone lines. Depending on your needs, connect at either 128Kbps, or with only one line at 64Kbps. When properly provisioned, ISDN can also be used as a conventional phone line. Because ISDN is digital, internet connections are made within a few seconds, and are more than double the speed of modems. ISDN always connects at no less than 64Kbps per channel, so there's no connection speed "Roulette".

Is this right for me? ISDN is almost always available in areas which have regular phone service. Give us your telephone exchange to be sure. ISDN connections for business service must be "tweeked" to insure connections are not too excessive, (i.e. $0.085 per call). Use ISDN if DSL is not available in your area.

56k Dialup
The staple of basic internet access. We offer premier dial-up access for the greater Grand Rapids area.

Is this right for me? If you have a phone and a computer, you can usually connect to the internet using dialup. If your needs are low, you're on the fringe of town, or monthly cost is of concern, dialup is the correct choice. Unfortunately, there's no speed or stability guarentees with dialup connections. With connection speeds which can vary between 9.6Kbps to 52Kbps, depending on distance from the Telco, premise wiring, modem brand, current wheather conditions, sun spots, (and only heaven knows what else!), it's still one of the most popular access solutions!

Design Web Design
It's hard to find a good web designer. Over the years we've been through our share. Most all of our web designers are on staff. Ask them how to make a new, or better web presence for your business, group or organization.

Beware of the freelance web designer! Most freelance web designers that show up on your door are hungry. They come, (many perform, and many don't), and then they're gone. The next time you need them, their phone is disconnected.

Many have one thing in common. -- They want to move your domain! Your domain is much more than your web site! There's only one reason a designer wants to move your domain: To suppliment their income by playing middle-man with the hosting fees you pay for your domain. Either by billing you directly, or by kick-backs from the hosting company. In the end, you end up with a watered down service, and a web designer who makes money off from you, by doing absolutely nothing.

We at DNX can support most any web hosting need that is required by mankind. You don't need your site hosted anywhere else!
