Note: Effective August 1, 2003, Central Michigan University will begin gradual phase-out of the dial-up services. Under the reduced service plan, CMU will preserve dial-up Internet access for all users in the local calling area. Statewide Internet access will no longer be available. Local users may access the university network by dialing 774-2224. See ISP FAQs and Local ISP List for replacement service information.
