Eclipse Flex Home 500

Multi-speed Internet on tap

The service from Eclipse is a mid-priced package that has been very smooth with no connection problems or noticeable slow periods.

The Flex system for increasing the connection speed temporarily has always worked and speed increases immediately, even in the middle of a download. It also has no monthly usage cap or set up fee.

The webmail service has just been upgraded with a new interface that includes a calendar and to-do list. Using Internet Explorer to access this is almost like using Outlook with the added advantage of universal access.

There are different versions compatible with Firefox/Mozilla and one for other browsers. 

I’ve been very impressed with the Eclipse Flex Home 500 service, especially the ability to temporarily boost my connection speed.
