I've use both AltaVista and NetZero on occasional basis when my ISP's access numbers are busy! I have always been able to get a connection from the free service. The ads do get in the way a little bit, but getting a connection during busy times is worth it.

>>>3. Realistically, can you get a connection at the local access number(s)?

>>Yes. I have never got a busy signal with the two Vancouver number yet. Either during the day or evening.
