Alphacomm.net offers high speed, always-on Internet access to customers in many of Upper Peninsula Telephone Company's exchanges.

Our high speed Internet is provided by use of a digital subscriber line (DSL) connection. DSL uses the same wiring as your phone, but does not tie up the phone line like a traditional dial-up Internet connection.

    DATA-ONLY DSL SERVICE (DSL Service Without Purchasing Telephone Service)


  • AEL purchases DSL service from Upper Peninsula Telephone Company using their regulated facilities on a voice and data wholesale basis. This enables AEL to offer Internet access to our customers at a discounted rate. If a subscriber wishes to have DSL service without telephone service, this discounted rate no longer applies, and non-regulated rates will apply for the data-only service. AEL is a non-regulated company.

    RESTOCKING FEE


  • The company will charge a 25% restocking fee on any item ordered for a customer who decides to return the item unused. If the company cannot receive credit for the item, the customer is responsible for the full charge and will be subject to disconnection if the bill is not paid.
