Yonc

Yonc is a highly effective utility in the Internet & Network category, specifically under Browsers, designed to simplify dial-up connections to the internet. Developed by EmTec Innovative Software, the latest version, 1.28, is compatible with a range of Windows operating systems, including Windows XP, 7, 8, 10, and 11. Earlier versions of the program, like 1.2, also offer great functionality, but the latest update brings even more improvements.

With Yonc, users can connect to the internet through Windows dial-up networking with just a single mouse click. If the first connection attempt fails, the program will redial automatically. It’s especially useful for staying connected at optimal speeds, as it will retry the connection if speeds are subpar. Furthermore, if your ISP disconnects you due to inactivity, Yonc can simulate activity to maintain the connection. Alternatively, the program can identify idle or low-traffic lines and disconnect them to save resources.

One of the standout features is the ability to monitor extensive information about your internet connection and system usage. Yonc can track your daily and monthly online time, calculate monthly online costs, and even monitor the number of emails in multiple accounts. It also provides data on the speed of data transmission and modification dates for web pages, making it a comprehensive tool for managing dial-up connections.

Yonc can be easily downloaded and it's free to use, making it accessible for a wide range of users looking for a reliable and efficient dial-up connection utility.
