Products come with a wide range of flexible networking and technical services to give customers end-to-end, one-stop solutions. We ensure quality and successful set up of every system we installed.

NasionetPersonal Internet Service

An off-the-shelf, instantly installable Internet dial-up access service that comes with one e-mail account. Customer purchases from any of the Nasionet appointed dealers a Nasionet CD which enable him to install the browser software and sign-u[ to the Nasionet Internet access and e-mail service on his own within a few minutes.

NasionetTeam Internet Service

This Internet service is similar to the "instant-online" NasionetPersonal service but allows the customer to sign up a few more e-mail accounts with Nasionet. This service is ideal for a small team of 2-5 members or very small businesses. Team members share a single Nasionet dial-up Internet access account.

NasionetOffice Internet Service

This is a hassle-free and robust Internet service solution for offices that have 5-20 (or more) users but does not have the Internet expertise to handle the technical deatails. It allows all the users in an office to share an Internet dial-up account, but unlike the other approaches (such as the antiquated UUCP dial-up account) provided by other service provides, it enables all the users on a local-area-network to browse and access the Internet and Web information concurrently. Each of the users has their own private e-mail account with individual e-mail access password.

Customers of NasionetOffice have the choice of using software or hardware based Internet proxy technology to achieve these features. A dedicated Internet server for providing e-mail and Internet access functions is not required, hence the administrative and technical chores associated with the maintenance of ane-mail and Internet server are eliminated, as all the Internet and e-mail services are provided by Nasionet. A single dial-up modem is shared among the users. For higher access speed, 2-4 modems are connected to our hardward-based Internet proxy to enhance performance. All the necessary software and hardware will be supplied by us as a total solution.

The NasionetOffice configuration can be set up on a single PC, several standalone PC's, or on a local area network without any hassle and does not require any specialised technical know-how from the customers. We assist in the installation of the network and system. The NasionetOffice comes with one free homepage and some free web page disk space.

Customers may also register their own Internet domain name to reflect their corporate identity on their e-mail accounts, i.e. in the form of whoiswho@yourcompanyname.com.my. Nasionet also provides the "Virtual Server Hosting" service which when used with the dial-up NasionetOffice will make a company's Internet presence to look big by appearing to have a dedicated high-speed Internet access and server. Your clients will access your homepage by pointing at the URL http://www.yourcompanyname.com.my, instead of the usual, not-so-professional looking http://www.ISPname/yourdirectory as provided by most other ISP's.

NasionetValue-Lines Services

These are dedicated leased-line Internet services for companies that allow other Internet users to access to their Internet servers and Internet-based applications and information services all the time. Companies that use NasionetValue-Lines are those running national-wide or international operations and branch offices, Web-based information and content services, commercial Web-accessed services (such as cyber cafes), electronic commerce Web servers, and intranet applications. As a licensed value-added telecommunication service provider, we work closely with other telcos and carriers to provide the start-to-finish value-added solutions and technical services to implement the Web-based system that progressive companies seek to capitalise on the effectiveness of the Internet as a new business delivery platform. Unlike other ISP's which tend to provide 'basic' Internet access service only and leave the customers with a partial service, Nasionet emphasizes on business-oriented applications and provides companies witht the complete products and services that require no special technical capabilities from the customers to implement Internet-based solutions. There is a wide base of businesses that potentially can use Nasionet services to improve their business processes, and these businesses can be small and medium scale companies that aspire to extend their boundaries by leveraging on our value-added services.

For example a manufacturer of motor vehicle spare parts may decide to subscribe to the NasionetValue-Lines service and run a computer server that installed with an Internet-based order processing, inventory and 'electronic billing' software (also supplied and serviced by Nasionet). This transcend the manufacturer's order processing and billing capability to a much higher level by allowing its dealers (such as the car workshops and spare parts resellers) to place orders directly to the company by accessing to its Web-based order forms via dial-up Internet access. The dealers get online feedbacks on availability of goods and able to track the status of their orders. The manufacturer has up-to-date picture about the demands of its products and adjust its production process in a more timely manner. Cash flow and credit control will improve through the process of sending invoices and even receiving payments through the Internet-based system.

The NasionetValue-Lines Internet and intranet services are designed for maximum flexibility and cost-effectiveness to meet the requirements of the users. It can be configured with analog, digital, bandwidth-on-demand (or dial-up) and combination of these telecommunication lines. NasionetValue-Lines usually provides bandwidth of 28.8/33.6kbps, 2x28.8, 64kbps to 256 kbps - the typical range of most business applications will need. For the users who need to go online urgently, we instantly install a 2x28.8 bandwidth-on-demand (or dial-up) configuration and the users get their access immediately while they wait for the dedicated lines to be installed by the telcos - some effort that other ISP's will never do. Customers can always rely on us to provide the responsive services and reliable solutions.

The NasionetValue-Lines service comes with a pre-configured router, so that the customer will not need to worry about router installation. Modems are also provided for the case of analog lines. The customer just needs to connect the router to his local area network (hub). Our service includes providing technical advice on the configuration and installation of the customers' local area network, the Internet server and firewall. We aim to make the entire system work for our customers.

Nasionet operates a comprehensive set of automated network management tools to ensure our customers' network is working reliably. Customers will get a dependable network service, and will even be provided with up-to-date information of their network status and usage.

Internet Domain Name Registration Service

An Internet domain name is usually a company name or trademark name. (It is highly advisable for companies to register their business and trademark names as Internet domain names as commercial usage of the Internet is expected to be widespread). We assist customers to register their Internet domain name with the relevant bodies and proceed to host the domain name if the customers do not have the required Internet servers.

Web Page Hosting Service and Virtual Server Hosting Service

Disk space is allocated on our Internet servers for Nasionet users' Web pages. This enables other Internet users to access to our customers homepages and other Web pages in the fastest possible speed. When a NasionetOffice customer also signs up the Virtual Server Hosting Service, the customer will get the advantage of having a professional Internet presence as if he is running a high-speed dedicated Internet access leased line and server.

Intranets are company-wide internal networks that are built on Internet technology.

We provide state-of-the-art network security solutions such as firewall software and smart card based Internet access security device to ensure the secure and controlled access of a corporate Intranet from the public Internet.
