The plan for these customers is one price for either analog or digital connections. Customers in this category receive the benefits of the DB and AB plan at a discounted price. The same rules apply regarding accessing the correct lines, digital or analog, for your location in the County and modem speed. See rules below. Because Columbia Technology Center provides two different connection options, analog and digital, as our way of cost effectively accommodating customers who are located rurally or in the city limits, we have different pricing options.
Digital technology is more expensive to support and allows customers to connect at a faster speed.
Customers are required to connect to the lines that correspond with the subscription plan they are paying for. If you connect at or below 33600bps, you will want to chose the analog plan. If you connect at a speed higher than that, than the digital basic is for you. Beginning in May, a friendly reminder will be issued the first time a customer is found to be connecting to the digital lines if they are paying for an analog account. We urge customers to avoid these fees by connecting to the lines that match their connection speed and payment schedule.
