Alachua Freenet to discontinue dial-up; GRU to offer discounted service
Anthony Clark, “Alachua Free-Net dialup service soon to end,” Gainesville Sun, March 17, 2007.
Last month, Alachua Freenet announced it would discontinue its free dial-up Internet service to its remaining users. (New account registration had been closed for some time.) AFN will continue to provide e-mail and Web hosting for existing accounts, and will continue its computer recycling program with the Dignity Project.
Last week, GRU announced it would provide discounted dial-up service for AFN users for up to a year, after which the service will rise to its regular price.
