NetAccess In It’s 12th year!
In June 2004, NetAccess entered its 12th year of business operation. This makes NetAccess one of Canada's oldest remaining independent ISPs. We are proud of this distinction and the tradition of innovation and service behind the name NetAccess. We are also pleased that we can invest our experience in the development of new services for our clients.
Introducing A New Service: NetBackup
Our new NetBackup service is a simple, reliable and secure method of backing up important documents and files to a remote location over your Internet connection. There is no software to purchase. You simply download a client program and install it on your Windows computer. Once the console is installed, you may backup any files on that computer (or any networked computer) and also create scheduled backups to run during off-hours. NetBackup can be configured to automatically load and run in the background whenever you start your computer. For more information, contact sales@nas.net or call Wendy at905-524-2001 x 27.
NetShield™ A Huge Success
Our NetShield™ services have proven to be one of the most popular and effective new services introduced over the past year. Whether you have a single email account at NetAccess, or large corporate mail server, NetShield™ provides a simple and effective solution to deal with the twin problems of Spam and viruses transmitted by email.In May, for example, 178,061 messages containing viruses were blocked and more than 500,000 spam messages were intercepted. NetAccess clients have been very enthusiastic about the effectiveness of both virus and spam controls. If you haven't yet taken advantage of the NetShield™ service, simply contact sales@nas.net or call Wendy at
905-524-2001 x 27.
New Backup Power
With the addition of a backup generator to its current UPS systems, NetAccess now has the ability to withstand power outages of unlimited duration. The generator is configured to automatically start after any power failure. The system is completely automatic and ensures that all our Internet services will be available to NetAccess clients in the event of a power disruption.
ADSL Service Upgrades
NetAccess was one of the first ISPs to undergo a complete reconfiguration of their Bell ADSL network. Formerly all ADSL connections were using a single path to NetAccess which was causing an overload of the Bell network. Now there are separate paths for each of our serving areas. In addition, all Corporate NetConnect clients have been moved to their own separate paths. These changes have brought about a huge improvement in reliability of ADSL connections.

Co-location Services
