F.A.Q

Q: What is remote computer support?
Remote computer support, also known as 'online support', allows us to remotely view your computer screen and securely fix most computer and network problems right through the Internet via remote control. In fact, it's like watching your computer fix itself! This type of computer support works through 'desktop sharing' technology. What this means is that when you 'log in to our secure online support center', you can allow a Remote Support Engineer to 'view' and 'interact' with your computer remotely via the Web - fixing problems fast.
Q: How long does an average support session last?
The average remote support session lasts anywhere from 30-60 minutes. However, depending on the type of problems you're experiencing, a session may be shorter or much longer. In some cases where the computer problems are severe, like lots of spyware; we may recommend a follow up remote session or scheduling an in-home or in-office visit by a Field Engineer.
Q: How much does it cost?
Much less than traditional computer support options! By viewing and interacting with your computer directly through the Internet, we can complete the work in much less time, saving you money. There's no need to schedule an in-home visit (costing upwards of $200/hr.) or taking your computer to a local repair shop (also very expensive). At InterLink we charge $43.99 for 30 minutes of remote support, or a discounted $83.99 for 60 minutes of remote support. We encourage you to purchase a full hour or more to take advantage of our discounted rates when you schedule support. If you don't use all your minutes, we'll save them in your account for anytime use.
Q: Can you get back into my computer after my session is over?
No, not until you log in again and request service. When you log in to InterLink's secure online support center you are prompted to download a temporary desktop sharing application and supporting tools that allow us to view and interact with your computer. Once your service is complete and you log off, the temporary application and accompanying tools are automatically deleted from your PC. We can no longer see or access your computer.
Q: Is it secure?
Yes. When you log in to our secure online support center, you are initiating a RSA encrypted connection between your computer and the Remote Engineer's computer. In this way, you have set up a unique one-to-one session that no one else can view or access during the session. That ensures your security and privacy. In addition, you are in control the whole time. Only you can initiate a remote support session and you can end a session by simply closing the support window on your desktop. Further still, you are always in control of your mouse (cursor). During your session you will see the Remote Engineer using your cursor to locate and fix problems. At any time you can over-ride mouse control by simply moving your mouse.

Q: Is it easy to use?
Very! By allowing a Remote Engineer to access your computer through the Internet they are able to fix your computer directly. You can simply sit back and watch. Or, you can work on something else while the technician is fixing your computer. Remote computer support is simple, convenient and, best of all, it's 'hands-free'. Simply log in to www.interlink-support.com, let go of the mouse and let us fix your PC!
Q: Do you charge to diagnose my computer?
No. However, the better you can describe your problems the less time it will take to diagnose your computer and begin fixing problems. In some cases your problems may be difficult to diagnose or can not be located. At InterLink, we will do everything we can to identify and resolve your computer problems, or at the very least, provide suggestions and next steps on resolving any issues.
Q: Is your work guaranteed?

If we can't fix it then you don't pay us a dime!
Q: Are your Technology Support Engineers qualified to work on my computer?
At InterLink Technology Support our computer technology experts are A+/MCP/MCSE Certified Professionals, Desktop Support Technician and Network Administrators. Every Remote Engineer is pre-qualified, has 3+ years experience in a help desk environment and completes an extensive two week training course on excellent service delivery and the virtual interface.
Q: Do you support Apple Macintosh computers?
No. Remote computer support for the Apple is not available at this time.
Q: Can you provide support through a dialup connection?
Yes. However, in some cases, customers that have a dial-up, mobile wireless or satellite Internet connection may experience longer online support sessions due to limited connection speeds. In addition, older PCs running Windows 98 or Windows ME are less stable and can be more difficult to support through a slower connection. We recommend you talk with a Remote Engineer when scheduling an appointment. Please call for more information or instructions about dial-up appointments.
