The Temple DCANet Dialup Program is a commercial Internet dialup service that combines high-speed access to the Internet with direct access to Temple's campus networks. Members of the Temple community may choose to participate in the program because of the attractive pricing, local dialup access throughout the Delaware Valley, and the high-speed and reliable access to Temple's network that the program provides.

The program is open to current students, staff, and faculty of Temple University. Currently, the program is not open to alumni. Eligibility to the program is confirmed by checking the Temple AccessNet username and password of applicants. Eligible members of the Temple community can learn how to obtain a Temple AccessNet username and password on Temple's web site.

After signing up online, a new member's application is sent to DCANet's New Account group. Applications are processed within one business day, and new members receive and e-mail confirmation once accounts are created. Members who sign up for the program will receive a DCANet PPP username and password. This username and password provides access to any of DCANet's high-speed modem and ISDN dialups throughout the Delaware Valley. Once connected, your account will enable you to check your e-mail, access the Internet, access hosts at temple, and use a web browser such as Netscape Communicator or Microsoft Internet Explorer.

Eligible participants can sign up online.
