Section 27:  Internet Speed Tests (FTTB, Cable)

Maximum internet speeds are not guaranteed with vendor-provided equipment unless Frontier specifically supplies and verifies a unique equipment design and configuration capable of supporting speeds exceeding 1 Gbps. Actual speeds may vary due to technical factors and operational practices. The maximum download speed for a single device is constrained by its Ethernet card, which typically does not support speeds above 1 Gbps. Therefore, speeds over 1 Gbps are generally only achievable by simultaneously using three or more devices connected via multiple wired connections to reach the total maximum download speed advertised.

Permitted Testing Tools

There are many sites on the Internet that offer Internet speed tests and broadband speed tests can be performed using various methods of which many may manufacture or impact the resulting numbers for various reasons. Only INTERNET ATLANTIC networks AUTHORIZED SPEED TEST and test plans will be permitted to determine effective bandwidth utilization.

Internet Speed Tests (Third Party)

While HTML5-based speed tests are more accurate than tests that use Java and Adobe Flash. We wish to point out that multithread tests such as those used by Ookla (Speedtest.net and branded by many ISPs) don’t represent real-world network traffic especially with high bandwidth services or private MPLS links.

Section 28: Voice SERVICES

Access to Enhanced 9-1-1 Emergency Service and 911 Service Explanation and Differences with your traditional phone phone line:

Understanding the distinctions between traditional 911 emergency services and VoIP 911 services, as offered by Internet Atlantic, is crucial for ensuring your safety and the safety of those around you. Traditional 911 services automatically provide emergency operators with your location and phone number, a feature often not available with VoIP 911 services. With Internet Atlantic’s VoIP 911 service, you are responsible for providing this critical information during an emergency call. Therefore, it is imperative that customers take the initiative to familiarize themselves with these differences to be adequately prepared in case of an emergency. Internet Atlantic has detailed resources to assist in this understanding. You can learn more about the specifics of our 911 service at Internet Atlantic’s 911 Service Explanation. Additionally, to ensure you are fully prepared, it’s recommended to read through the 911 Calling Tips Section on our website for further guidance. By being informed about these differences and how to effectively use the VoIP 911 service, you enhance your ability to respond swiftly and accurately in emergency situations, which could be life-saving.

Enhanced 9-1-1 (E9-1-1) must permanently correspond to the address and municipality of the CUSTOMER’s Service Location. When dialling 9-1-1, the call is automatically routed to the Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) corresponding to the CUSTOMER’s address. As a result, the emergency operator will have the CUSTOMER’s telephone and address information which the emergency operator will verify with you during a 911 call.

E9-1-1 will only function if an accurate Service Location address is in the 9-1-1 database.

Telephone Listings and Directories

INTERNET ATLANTIC does not supply or remit CUSTOMER information to any directory SERVICES.

Transferring Numbers

When requesting to transfer a telephone number currently assigned from another service provider to INTERNET ATLANTIC, the CUSTOMER represents and warrants that the CUSTOMER has the right to make the request and to authorize INTERNET ATLANTIC to make the transfer-in request to the other service provider on the CUSTOMER‘s behalf and to share the CUSTOMER‘s name, telephone number, address and additional personal information relevant to the transfer request with the other service provider. In addition, the CUSTOMER agrees to complete and sign a request form if necessary.

If the CUSTOMER wants to transfer the CUSTOMER‘s telephone number to another service provider, then, provided that the CUSTOMER‘s account and telephone number are active, INTERNET ATLANTIC will process a “transfer-out” request from the CUSTOMER‘s new chosen service provider, providing that no amounts are past due.
