Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to EarthLink, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with its registration statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and relating to the proposed offering of $300,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of 8.875% Senior Notes due 2019 of the Company (the “Exchange Notes”) in exchange for up to $300,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of 8.875% Senior Notes due 2019 of the Company originally issued on May 17, 2011 and outstanding as of the date hereof (the “Original Notes”), and of the related guarantees of the Exchange Notes (the “Guarantees”) made by each of the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries identified as a “Co-Registrant” on the cover page of the Registration Statement (each a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”).

The Original Notes were issued, and the Exchange Notes will be issued, pursuant to an indenture dated as of May 17, 2011, and a First Supplemental Indenture thereto dated as of June 7, 2011 (as so supplemented, the “Indenture”), by and among the Company, the Guarantors parties thereto and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (the “Trustee”). This opinion letter is furnished to you at your request to enable you to fulfill the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K, 17 C.F.R. §229.601(b)(5), in connection with the Registration Statement.

In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such documents, corporate records, certificates of public officials and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth herein. In addition to the foregoing, we have made such investigations of law as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth herein.

The Exchange Notes, the Guarantees and the Indenture are referred to herein, individually as a “Transaction Document” and collectively, as the “Transaction Documents.”
