How fast is the dialup
internet?
Cowboy.Net clients have access
to U.S. Robotics Total Control Digital Modem hubs providing speeds up to 53.3Kbps if using a V.90 or X2 compatible modem.
How does it work?
All you need is a computer with a dialup modem and an operational analog
telephone line! Your modem communicates with us via the
telephone line and our POP (point of presence) forwards you to the internet.
Will I be charged long-distance telephone charges?
Cowboy.Net has local
dialup numbers for the cities of Cushing, Perry, Pawnee, Yale,
Pawhuska, Ripley, and Okmulgee (Tulsa dialing area).
Cowboy.Net also provides a roaming service that
allows you to use your internet service from almost any city in the
United States via local dialup numbers for a small hourly fee.
Will I get busy signals?
The lines/customer ratio is 5, so you should not experience any busy
signals!
I am kicked offline with my current ISP. Will this occur
with you?
As long as your telephone lines are functioning properly, you will
not get kicked offline.
Is there any software to install?
No, your operating system contains all necessary software for the
ability to get online with us! We provide the instructions to
configure your account on your computer.
Does it cost me to start the service? How do I start it up?
There are no deposits or startup fees of any
kind for this service! Just take a few minutes to signup at
one of our locations and pay for your first month of service.
When will I be able to use my new service if I sign up?
No more hours of waiting for your internet service provider to start
up your service! Once you sign up, your e-mail and internet
access is immediately
ready to use.
Can I remotely check my e-mail from other computers?
With Cowboy.Net, you can check your e-mail
from any computer that has an internet connection, even if the
service is not provided by Cowboy.Net! For example, if
you are at a library, school, or on vacation you can just pull up
our website (http://www.cowboy.net/)
and check your e-mail using your username and password given to you
when you set up your service.
If I have problems with my service, what do I do?

technicians can be paged to contact you. You may also visit
