GERMANTOWN, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

EthoStream, LLC, a Telkonet company (AMEX:TKO), operators of one of the largest hospitality high-speed Internet access (HSIA) networks in the U.S., and a preferred or endorsed provider for some of the world's largest hotel franchisors, has signed Electro Tel, a full-service communications and security provider based in Alberta, Canada, to market its high-speed Internet access system throughout Canada. Electro Tel, who became an EthoStream reseller in January 2007, has installed EthoStream's system, providing both wired and wireless broadband Internet access, in 20 properties to-date, including Ramada, Best Western, Super 8 and Travelodge.

James MacKay, Sales Manager and TELUS Representative of Electro Tel, explains, "We selected EthoStream on the strength of their marketing strategies and robust service offering. Upon comparing EthoStream to all other competitors on the basis of service level offerings, pricing and leadership, combined with their exclusive Remote Management Console and on-going property management, the choice was clear, with EthoStream winning hands down. No other HSIA vendor came close.

"One of the highlights of working with EthoStream is their willingness to work with a wide variety of equipment which makes the installation a simple integration of the EthoStream Server with the property's existing hardware. In this scenario, the installation and testing, along with educating the staff, often takes less than four hours on site.

"EthoStream is very approachable, right up to the CEO level, and are all committed to the spirit of partnership in getting the solutions into the client's properties and in maintaining a high level of customer satisfaction on an ongoing basis. They are the only company I am aware of that offers full-disclosure to the client in the form of their on-line web-based Remote Management Console (RMC). With the RMC, anyone with a username and password has access to reports, including system up-time, bandwidth, the number of users, user history, phone/Internet support trouble tickets and the end result of each. Time and again, this illustrates the value in the EthoStream solution and also serves as a measuring stick which can provide an important piece of mind for a hotel owner."
