Accelix has its roots in the Internet services industry. Before starting
Accelix in August 2000, the founder of Accelix formed a successful Internet
company in 1993 called US Net. US Net started providing Internet services
to businesses when the Internet was still operated by the National Science
Foundation (NSFNET) and before the Internet was open to commercial traffic.
As the Internet grew, US Net provided leading edge connectivity solutions
and consulting to businesses to help them capture opportunities. By the
time US Net was sold to a cable company in 1999, the company had a network
that spanned three States and had over five-thousand customers. US Net's
combination of network engineering and software expertise made it highly
successful.
The Internet has changed with the introduction of low-cost, high-speed
Internet access over DSL and cable. As such, the only way for an Internet
company to sell connectivity and remain viable in the long run is to own
the infrastructure that delivers those services. This dynamic has
eliminated smaller Internet service companies and delivered the connectivity
business to the telephone and cable industries.

range of Internet services to customers. These services include:
