Information about Tether - PPP dialup connection

Tether is MIT's remote-access dialup service providing PPP
connectivity to MITnet.  It supports the PPP protocol at speeds
ranging from 28.8 to 56 kbps.  

Tether is an extension of the MIT computing environment. Use of this
service is for Institute purposes only and is subject to MITnet Rules
of Use (NS-14).

While there is no fee associated with Tether, all of the Tether phone
numbers are in the 617 area code, so long distance charges may
apply.

where you will find basic information, answers to frequently asked
questions, registration forms, and more.
