MachLink® Cable Modem Service
Experience the Excitement of Lightning Fast Internet Access!

Highlights
MachLink Cable Modem Service offers super-fast, dedicated Internet access through the same coaxial cable that provides MPW Cable TV service. MachLink Cable is up to hundreds of times faster than a traditional dial-up modem during peak performance.

Because you're accessing the Internet through your cable service, your Internet connection is always on, and you're not tying up your phone line. Best of all, with a MachLink high-speed cable modem, you'll have quick and easy access to the most content-rich areas of the Internet.

Availability
MachLink Cable Modem Internet access is available to all businesses and residences that can receive MPW Cable TV service. This service territory includes the cities of Muscatine and Fruitland, as well as a few nearby areas, such as Ripley's and Hickory Hills.
