Access Communications Co-operative, Limited. is a Canadian cable television provider, operating in Regina, Saskatchewan and several other communities in Saskatchewan. It was previously known as Regina Cablevision Co-operative Ltd. but operated as Cable Regina from commencement of service in Regina in 1978 until April 2000, after acquisitions of cable television operations in Weyburn, Estevan and Yorkton and surrounding communities. Dial-up Internet service was first offered in September 1995. Cable modem broadband service followed in 1997. On February 7, 2007, Access Communications launched its primary line telephone service in Regina in direct competition with Saskatchewan's government-owned ILEC, SaskTel. On July 1, 2009, Access became Saskatchewan's largest cable provider with the purchase of Persona Cable's operations in Saskatchewan. The co-operative's establishment in the 1970s came about only after a prolonged legal and constitutional battle between the federal government and the province of Saskatchewan's social democratic government, which had differing visions of how cable television service should be delivered to citizens of the province. ==Services== Access offers the following services: * Internet access, including dial-up and high-speed via cable modem * Analog, digital, high definition television, PVR, PPV and VOD * Telephone * Home Security * Web hosting, both for subscribers and commercial entities Access is one of the few ISPs that officially list support for the Linux operating system, as well as providing resources to Linux users. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Access Communications」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
