Broadband Explained

What is broadband?

Broadband is the common term for a high bandwidth Internet connection. Broadband services are capable of transmitting data at much faster rates than a standard dial up connection. A Broadband Internet connection is 'always on' - you don't need to dial-up every time you want to 'log on'. This means no more engaged tones, no screeching noises and no delays. With Wireless broadband theres:

No Phone Lines ----------------No Waiting -------------------No Hassle

Why would I want it?

Most Internet users would like to improve the speed of their connection. On a standard modem Internet connection e-mails with large file attachments and graphic intensive Web sites can take ages to download. Viewing video on the Web, or listening to music can also prove problematic.

A Broadband connection can improve all of these and will allow you to use the Internet in
a completely different way.

Benefits include:

SPEED: Wireless speeds are comparable to DSL and other competing technologies and
up to 40 times faster than traditional dial up modems.
