Managed ADSL Service

High Speed, Great Value

ADSL provides high speed Internet access over telephone wires, using existing equipment and infrastructure to create a network connection from your office to Stargate Connections and on to the Internet. It is a full-time, permanent service that allows basic phone service to continue being used at the same time.*

*Note: Applies only to Telus Business Individual Access Line.

Stable, Consistent, Flexible

Compared to shared broadband cable, ADSL is a dedicated network connection that is more stable and provides consistent, reliable performance. Cable can be restrictive as some providers lock down ports and other functions in an attempt to boost performance. With managed ADSL, you get static IP addresses at no extra cost, that permit future expansion and the flexibility to run whatever services you need.

Security

Your Internet connection must be secure—your business depends on it. We use ADSL routers only, which offer much higher levels of security and performance than ADSL modems.

Optimum Routing, Automatic Failover

Stargate's core network uses Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) to ensure maximum reliability among our Internet feeds. BGP connects Stargate, and our customers, to several peer Internet providers simultaneously.

During normal usage, BGP dynamically routes traffic to and from remote sites along the best path at any given moment. If a peer suffers an outage, BGP uses automatic failover to route all traffic over the remaining connections. Both of these features ensure our ADSL customers receive the best performance and reliability possible.

Benefits of Managed ADSL

ADSL offerings are now quite common and competitively priced, but what sets Stargate's offerings apart from the rest are the benefits of managed ADSL service:

Network Monitoring

We continually monitor our ADSL network to ensure sufficient bandwidth is available, even at peak times, so users are not competing for resources. As usage increases, we expand the "pipe" so that our customers always have contention-free access.

Proactive Issue Resolution

By keeping a close watch on the network, our team of professionals can respond immediately when customer issues arise, even before our customers are aware of it. Our 24/7 dedicated response team is automatically notified, any time day or night.

Optimization through BGP

Along with its inherent optimization abilities, BGP allows Stargate Connections' expert technicians to adjust network settings as required, ensuring optimum Internet performance is always attained.

Coverage Across Canada

Through our partnerships with Telus and Bell Canada, Stargate Connections can provide managed ADSL service to customers in British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario and Quebec. This allows Stargate to provide one-stop service to businesses having multiple branch offices in these provinces.
