Internet Access and the ACCC
What We Do
You are not limited to a single ISP or connection type.
If you're connecting on campus, use a campus network connection.
Don't use the ACCC dialin lines when connecting from on the UIC campus.
If you're connecting from off campus, consider using the ACCC dialin service, but it might not be best for you.
