Installation Instructions
The minimum system requirements are a Macintosh 350mhz
with at least 128mb RAM and at least 5MB of hard-drive space running
Macintosh OS X (any release). It is not supported by OS 9 or earlier
versions of Mac OS.
1. New dial-up number
Only our statewide phone numbers support this new
acceleration technology. You must change your dial-up number to a
SlipStream modem bank to use SlipStream service.
Dial-up numbers can be found
here along with instructions on how
to change your dial-up phone number.
Tip: The new SlipStream statewide phone numbers all end in 1241
instead of 1240, but are otherwise the same. Example:
Marysville (530) 216-1240 = normal dial-up | Marysville (530) 216-1241 =
SlipStream only
