MIT Campuslink Information
Overview
Massachusetts Institute of Technology has contracted with PAETEC's
Campuslink Services to provide long distance telephone service
for students. While you're on campus,
all you need to place direct-dialed calls is a full-service campus
phone and your Campuslink Personal Billing Number (PBN). There
are no sign-up fees or long waiting periods. Your PBN is ready
as soon as you
sign
up for Campuslink service.
Students may sign up via the web by going to PAETEC's
Campuslink Services and clicking "Signup for Service"
in the left-hand column. From the University drop-down list, select
Mass. Institute of Technology.
Note: Campuslink services cannot be accessed from
"campus-only" dorm phones. Dorm phones may be upgraded
to full service through Campuslink. The full service includes
unlimited local calls, receiving off-campus calls, voice mail, and
other standard phone features.
