If you want blazing-fast internet access, you don't need cable modems or dedicated phone lines. All you need is light.speed by Telergy. It uses revolutionary ADSL technology to deliver Internet speeds of up to 1.28 Mbps for downloads and 320 Kbps for uploads - all courtesy of a plug and play modem that can support up to two computers at a time. And even though light.speed uses your existing phone line, it doesn't tie it up. Which means you can surf and talk at the same time. So call 800-889-6716 today. Or check out our demo in the Cornell bookstore. Because once you've tried Telergy light.speed, everything else seems slow.
