Tm's Easynet

The_YongGrand · 18th Mar 2007, 07:24 PM

Have you ever tried the TMNet's Easynet? It's supposed to be free... but with 4 cents per minute charge.

Since it doesn't involve the account username and password, will using Easynet for accessing email accounts and others safe, since the line is for everyone's use? Could my email or other account passwords get exposed using EZnet for checking mails and stuff like that?

Or EZnet is just a plain 56K connection that is specially not using username/passwords?

Nope. Never tried it yet. But I might since I sometimes have to travel to places without Streamyx connectivity.

I think it's just a 56K connection. Shouldn't be anything bizarre.

EZnet is pre-activated Internet narrowband service and are available to all TM fixed line subscribers nationwide. TM fixed line subscribers with a PC and narrowband modem may access the Internet by only dialing 1315. EZnet gives you an attractive alternative to Internet dial-up access which provides internet connectivity and convenience in one single service

Interesting idea. wonder if we can hack out the lines from public phones and dial up 1315.

Probably, but would you really want to do that?

It's easier to just leech bandwidth from your neighbour or sit near Starbucks.
