                       PC PURSUIT SERVICE UPDATE
                             December 1987

Telenet's PC Pursuit Service is on the move, offering new access        
codes, higher transmission speeds and more cities, to ensure the best   
PC communications service possible.  This service update contains       
specifics on the new enhancements and how they will benefit you in      
your pursuit of online information.

NEW ACCESS CODES FOR PC PURSUIT SERVICE

Effective January 5, 1988, all current PC Pursuit area access codes     
will be changed.  This change will make PC Pursuit easier to use, and   
provide you broader and more cost-effective coverage of 33 cities,      
including 40 area codes.  For more information on this access code      
change and all the new codes, consult the access code insert included   
as the last page of this service update.

2400 BPS SERVICE ADDED, CAPACITY EXPANDED

Beginning in January 1988, Telenet's PC Pursuit Service will be         
available at 2400 bps in the 14 major PC Pursuit cities listed below:

  Atlanta      Denver            Newark              Seattle
  Boston       Detroit           New York            Washington D.C.
  Chicago      Houston           Philadelphia
  Dallas       Los Angeles       San Francisco

New modems with optional local error protection using Microcom          
Networking Protocol (MNP) are being installed in these PC Pursuit       
cities for 1200 and 2400 bps service.  To access 2400 bps outdial with  
or without MNP you must dial your local 2400 bps access telephone
number.  When using local error protection your modems must be MNP      
compatible, or you can use MNP compatible software in your PC.  The     
new modems have a few new response messages providing modem and         
connection status that you may find helpful; check the Net Exchange     
BBS for more specifics on the new modems.

During the first quarter of 1988, the outdial capacity for PC Pursuit   
will more than double.  Capacity will be expanded by adding many more   
ports and modems to the busiest cities, and eliminating the 300 bps     
outdial service.  The migration of ports from 300 bps to higher speeds  
for improved capacity will begin on February 1, 1988.

What does this mean for 300 bps modem users?  You will still be able    
to dial-in to Telenet at 300 bps and make an outdial connection         
through a 1200 bps modem to the PC or BBS of your choice and            
communicate by reading and sending messages.  However, file transfers   
and large ASCII downloads will not be supported when dialing in at 300  
bps and outdialing at 1200 bps.  Again, Telenet's 300 bps Asynchronous  
Dial Service will continue to be available nationwide; only PC          
Pursuit's 300 bps outdial capability is being eliminated.

As the modem industry migrates to faster transmission speeds and high   
speed modems become less expensive, you may want to consider a modem    
that supports 1200 and/or 2400 bps to maximize the use of your PC.




EIGHT NEW PC PURSUIT CITIES

Telenet is pleased to announce the addition of the following eight new  
PC Pursuit cities:

  Hartford, CT       203           Santa Ana, CA        714
  Kansas City, MO    816, 913      Sacramento, CA       916
  Palo Alto, CA      415, 408      San Diego, CA        619
  Riverside, CA      714           St. Louis, MO        314, 618

These cities operate at 1200 bps and will become available beginning    
in January and February, 1988.  There will be many more cities added    
throughout 1988.  For up-to-date information on expansions and          
enhancements, check the Net Exchange BBS regularly.

AUTOMATED PC SIGN-ON REMINDER

If you are dialing Telenet's 2400 bps access numbers with an automated  
PC sign-on script, you must insert a delay of 200 milliseconds between  
the Hunt and Confirm sequence (@  CR).  When signing on to the Telenet  
Public Data Network at 2400 bps, the normal baud-detection sequence is  
(@  CR).  For 2400 bps service to be accurately detected by the         
network, at least a 200 millisecond delay must be inserted between      
the  @  and the  CR.

DAYTIME BILLING

Billing for daytime usage of PC Pursuit Service commenced with the      
billing for August 1987 daytime usage, and will continue for each       
month until current.  The rates are $10.50 to 14.00 per hour            
(depending upon your access location), as stated in your Terms and      
Conditions for use of PC Pursuit Service.  The prime times that will    
be billed for daytime usage of PC Pursuit are  7 am - 6 pm, Monday      
through Friday.  For at least the first half of 1988, these daytime     
usage charges will be sent on a separate invoice and check payment      
will be required.  In the latter half of 1988, daytime charges will be  
billed directly to you on your credit card account.

NET EXCHANGE BBS HIGHLIGHTS

Information Files:   A number of new and helpful information files      
have been added to the PURSUIT file area, including help files on ITI   
network port parameters, hunt and confirm sequences (for sign-on to     
Telenet), terminal identifiers (ie. Terminal=D1), and a primer on       
using the Racal-Vadic command mode on the outdial modems.

Message Areas:   There are various message areas on the Net Exchange    
including conferences on FCC issues, BBS ads, Billing Questions and     
general issues.  Please try to keep your messages in the correct        
message area; this will allow you to benefit the most from the Net      
Exchange.

Questions:   When the System Operator (sysop) answers your questions,   
he generally makes the responses public so that everyone can benefit    
from the answer.  Please try reading through old messages in the MAIN   
message area before you ask questions.  You'll probably find the        
answer to your question without even asking.

Thanks:   A special thanks to many users who take the time to answer    
other users questions on the Net Exchange.  This is the ideal forum     
for that "user-helping-user" support.

Updated Dialing Exchanges:  The Net Exchange now includes an updated    
list of all the dialing exchanges accessible through each outdial city  
available to you.

New modems with optional local error protection using Microcom          
Networking Protocol (MNP) are being installed in these PC Pursuit       
cities for 1200 and 2400 bps service.  To access 2400 bps outdial with  
or without MNP you must dial your local 2400 bps access telephone
number.  When using local error protection your modems must be MNP      
compatible, or you can use MNP compatible software in your PC.  The     
new modems have a few new response messages providing modem and         
connection status that you may find helpful; check the Net Exchange     
BBS for more specifics on the new modems.
