dial (313)-577-0321 to connect to a 300-to-9600 bps modem.
it connects you to the MERIT network.  At the terminal prompt
type in the terminal type (I use kermit with vt100).  Then at
the which-host prompt, type in `telnet <complete internet address>'

TO get the MERIT dial-up access number in YOUR city in USA, type HELP
instead of `telnet....'.  Then follow instructions and choose options...

I found information on how to access (atleast how to start going about this way)
internet from India, using the HELP option.  It gives information about
ALL dial-up connections in ALL countries...

BTW, dont use this number regularly.  You could be trespassing detroiters
property.
