Internet service providers

There are Internet service providers (ISPs) around the world. Similar to other online services or bulletin boards, you dial the service number and log on to the remote system. Once connected, you have access to the Internet and any other services, such as electronic mail, that are provided by the ISP. Fees usually apply for commercial ISPs.
