CommunityNet

CommunityNet is an initiative of Adam Internet that allows AdamDirect and Naked DSL customers on the same telephone exchange to share files between each other without counting towards any of their data quotas.


* 24000k/1000k is the maximum possible speed of a AdamDirect service, generally only a small percentage of customers will obtain download speeds above 20000k. As the distance from the exchange increases, the speed will decrease accordingly. This decrease is affected by the quality of your phone line, including the internal wiring of your house. It is impossible for Adam Internet to determine the attainable speed prior to your service being active. As a general rule, we will only connect your service if your line will support 1500k or better. Based on a sample of existing AdamDirect customers, the average connection speed obtained is between 6000k/1000k and 8000k/1000k.
