Internet Access
You get on the internet (web or “world wide web” = www) via
an ISP (internet service provider). You
are going to be frustrated if you don’t have a broad band connection to the
internet (DSL or cable). So just bite
the bullet and pay for the broad band connection. Virtually all updates for operating systems,
application programs (including MONDO
CONDO), equipment drivers, and anti-virus software updates are now done
over the web. If you do not have a broad
band connection your phone line (dial up access) will be busy for hours
downloading this necessary information.
In fact, Internet Access is going to be so important to management
companies that a backup broadband system is recommended (see Multi-Homing
Systems). The web based version of MONDO CONDO will require broad band
access to the internet.
