NexTrend connects directly to the Internet backbone over alternately routed fiber optic circuits. Its system design eliminates the cluttered browser/server networking that often causes delays and interruption associated with Internet delivery and overcomes the problems experienced by other quote vendors on the Internet.
Internet connections at 56Kbps modem speeds are satisfactory but it is recommended to use cable or DSL connections when possible.
Dial-up service over an ordinary private telephone connection can be used, but it is recommended to not use call waiting features while accessing the service.
The ISP connection should be external to any central telephone equipment such as a PBX.
NexTrend is designed to operate on a wide variety of PC's and Laptops with Microsoft® Windows 2000, XP or Vista operating systems. Microsoft® Internet Explorer (version 6.0 or higher) browser software is required for certain NexTrend applications.
It is also highly recommended that you check Microsoft Windows Update and the microsoft.com Download Center to ensure that your system is up to date with the latest upgrades and Service Pack. | | | | |
