Information Highway.com, Inc.
(the "Company")
For Immediate Release: September 13, 2000 - Vancouver, BC - Information Highway.com, Inc. (OTC BB: IHWY) wishes to announce that an agreement with Bell Nexxia , a subsidiary of Bell Canada (NasdaqNM: BCICF) has been completed to offer high speed access service to our internet dial-up users in the Toronto, Ontario area. This service is based on the Alcatel (NYSE: ALA) ASAM 1000 DSLAM technology platform which will enable connection from PC's, servers, routers etc.
The DSL service line speeds will be up to 2.2 Mbps downstream (to the end-users premise) and 640 kbps upstream (from the end users premise) or up to 125 times faster than ordinary dial-up modem connections. DSL enables users to remain connected to the Internet 24-hours-a-day, eliminating annoying busy signals was well as the time and cost of waiting to connect. And, because the service works on the same line as the phone, customers don't have to pay for additional lines - they can talk while they search the net.
Jack Wasserman, Vice President of Marketing for YESIC Communications, Inc., states "The Company will now be a full service provider of Internet solutions to the greater Toronto area and we expect the agreement with Bell Nexxia will dramatically increase our customer base over the next three (3) years."
