Introduction to Services - Important! |
Smart City offers a wide variety of bandwidth options; please review to assure that the services you have selected will provide the required functionality for the application(s) you will be utilizing. Smart City provisions services using Ethernet protocols. IP Addresses are normally statically assigned, with a limited number of services provisioned via NAT with a log-in / access code and password. Throughput is measured in megabits per second (Mbps) and kilobits per seconds (Kbps). Customer’s computers must be configured to accept Ethernet. Customer must have their own Electrical Power, Network Interface Card (NIC), Web browser and all other necessary computer equipment / programs. While Smart City supports POP3 and SMTP mail protocols, Smart City does not offer / provide POP3 or SMTP mail server(s) / email account(s).

Wireless Internet (Service Notification) |
Wireless service is inherently vulnerable to interference from other devices that transmit similar radio frequency signals or that operate within the same frequency spectrum. Smart City cannot guarantee that interference will not occur. Smart City does NOT recommend wireless service for mission critical services such as product presentation or demonstrations. For demonstrations and product presentations we highly recommend Customers purchase hard wired services such as Shared Ethernet, Shared EtherNAT, Basic EtherNAT or T-1 service. Due to the extensive coverage Smart City provides for the Facility, NO Customer provided wireless access points are authorized for use within the Facility without Smart City approval (wireless access points without adjustable power outputs can not be authorized under any circumstances). Routers, Streaming Applications, VoIP, DHCP, NAT or Proxy Servers are not allowed with our Shared Wireless service. Wireless Access Points Not Authorized By Smart City Are Prohibited.
