What are busy signals?
Busy signals occur when every available phone NetDotCom provides for subscribers to dial to connect to the Internet are in use. NetDotCom works hard to eliminate busy signals, but they are still an occasional fact of life on the Internet. You get a busy signal if too many NetDotCom subscribers are trying to connect to the Internet at the same time. NetDotCom operates with a very low user to dial-up modem ratio, thus busy signals are kept to a minimum. While NetDotCom will not try to limit your use or prompt you to get offline (as AOL does), you should try to be considerate of other subscribers and not remain logged on longer than you need to.
