A third service is called AOL BYOA (Bring Your Own Access). This is used along with an existing broadband connection, supplied by your Internet Service Provider (ISP). If you have AOL DSL, please refer to “Directions for AOL DSL Users” below for setup instructions. If you have either AOL Cable or the AOL BYOA service, please go to the “Directions for AOL Cable Users” section of this guide, on page 104.
