Welcome to Pulaski Networks

Pulaski Networks is a full service ISP (Internet Service Provider) serving Southwest Virginia and surrounding areas since October 2000. Our goal, quite simply, is to provide the fastest, most reliable dialup internet service possible.


The spam situation!

As many of you have probably noticed, we got completely flooded with spam/junk mail earlier this week (Oct 6-8). This was caused by our decision to discontinue our service with Postini. There are several reasons for our decision, but the primary factors included Postini's decision to more than triple the cost of providing service, their refusal to honor their own contracts, and their inability to block certain types of spam.

We've implemented a new anti-spam solution called SpamAssassin. While it will take some time for us to get SpamAssassin properly tuned, it has already proven to be at least as effective as Postini for most types of spam (for a while, you may see an increase in certain types of spam). Once it's running at it's full potential, we expect that it will be blocking upwards of 99.9% of all spam messages. However, before we can achieve that level of protection, we need to implement a few additional tools, which will be available as they are created.

Also, before we really crank the filters to their maximum potential, we want to give each individual user the ability to set up their own lists:

  • Approved Senders
  • Blocked Senders
  • Personal Spam Score Levels

Other features we plan to implement, include:

  • Dynamic Blocking (automatically identify and block hosts who send obvious spam)
  • Dynamic Whitelisting (automatically identify and allow hosts who send obviously legitimate email)

If you have any suggestions for features you would like to see in our new anti-spam system, please feel free to contact us to let us know.

Updates:

  • Identified Spam is now being moved to a Spam folder within your webmail. Click here to log into your webmail. You can move good messages to your Inbox for normal delivery
  • You can now create your own Allow/Deny lists. Check out the "Spam Settings" at the top of your Webmail page.

Highspeed Wireless - Only $29.95/month

If you have a clear view of Draper Mountain (Peak's Knob), and you're within about 5 miles, we can provide high speed wireless access to your home. Please call or email us to schedule a survey and/or installation. Here's the breakdown on pricing:

There is a charge for equipment, since we don't have the same deep pockets that the Telephone and Cable companies do, so there is an equipment charge of about $250 and an installation charge of $99, but we are offering a $100 instant rebate to help keep your costs down.

We're sorry, but we're no longer able to offer payment arrangements for our wireless services. You can, however, work with consumer financial groups such as Citi Financial or American General to finance your equipment purchase.

Standard installation includes outdoor equipment, mounting bracket, up to 25' standard cable, pass-through of one wall and/or floor, and the connection of a single computer. Additional services availble based on time & materials, including, but not limited to:

  • Flush or surface mount receptacle
  • Wired or Wireless networking for additional computers
  • Installation of wired or wireless network cards

* Equipment cost will vary based on individual requirements.


Computer acting funny? We can help!

Did you know that Pulaski Networks also works on computers? We can't promise any miracles, but if your computer isn't acting the way it should be, chances are good that we can help.

PC Restore - $90.00

Once all this is done, we'll get your Internet and Email set back up, restore your saved files, and install your choice of Anti-Virus software. If you don't have your own antivirus, we can help get you set up with either AVG or Avast Antivirus, both of which are free for home users.

While service can take up to 3 business days, we're often able to get these jobs turned around much faster. Additional software installation can be done at our regular rate of $45/hour

Minimum System Requirements - While we would like to help everyone get the most out of their computer, we do have to draw the line somewhere...

  • Windows XP / 2000
  • Windows 98se & Millennium Edition (until Dec 31, 2006)
    • Pentium II 233Mhz
    • 96MB RAM
    • 2GB HDD
  • Windows 95
  • MacOS 8/9/X
    • Our experience with MacOS is limited, but if you want your system reloaded and set up, we'll be more than happy to go over the options with you.
