The Internet has transformed itself from a technological luxury to an irreplaceable source of communication, especially as a way of business and correspondence. This posed a problem for business travelers and seasoned tourists. There is no guarantee that you will have available access for your equipment, no matter how posh your hotel or your computer might be.

But, fret not, all you need is the right international internet access, power cords and phone line converters and you’ll be able to connect online, wherever you are in the world. In North America alone, there are 4,000 service providers that can provide, not just local access, but Internet access worldwide as well. AT&T and MCI Internet provide one of the most convenient ISDN, DSL or T1 Internet access anywhere in the world, having local dial-up numbers in major cities and locations. And, any local browser and E-mail applications work with their system. AOL, on the other hand, has a less extensive global reach but provides network phone access in its serviced locations. But you need to use their unique software to connect to their network to gain that international internet access.

Wherever you are, be sure to test the phone line. You can damage your modem if you plug your analog modem into a digital phone line. Or if the phone system has too much electrical current, your modem and computer’s serial port might be busted. A Modem Saver is a reliable quick fix for this. With its multicolored lights, you can detect the status of the phone line before you even switch something to your ISP's international internet access.

Connect only compatible adapter plugs into the wall jacks. The standard is RJ-11 modular connector, but it does not guarantee that it will be compatible with other countries’ plugs. For this, it is recommended that you get an adapter plug that can fit with any connector. Lastly, adjust your modem configurations by checking the dial tones, whether they’re pulse or tone. You can adjust this by fixing your control panel (if you’re using Windows) or settings (if you’re using Mac).

With the right gadgets and service provider, tourists and businessmen won’t need to worry about getting internet access worldwide. By doing your research on that country you’re traveling to, you’ll be able to get that international internet access anytime, anywhere.
