---------
Q) So why use OLCS Broadband?
A) As with our ISP services, we offer personal support and
a range of bespoke
options.
---------
Q) What sort of options should I consider
A) There are various combinations of services than can be
provided. For
example, for single computer and multi computer users. Also the remote
access (fixed IP) requirements. Although most ADSL providers encourage USB
ADSL modems, were you aware that improved performance can be had from other
ADSL modems depending on your individual setup.
---------

provide an agreed service, changing the contract can be both expensive and
troublesome.

of termination.

A) Yes, our prices are below most providers but remember
our services are
catered to your needs.
