It is almost taken for granted today that almost everyone has access to the Internet from home. Kids in school today, even in many elementary schools, are given assignments that almost require relocation to the public library if they don't have Internet access at home. Web sites today are getting more complex, which means they are also getting larger, and accessing the Internet via a dial-up connection no longer cuts the mustard in terms of speed. The vast majority of residential high-speed Internet access is done using either DSL Internet access or Cable Internet access. Using DSL Internet access or Cable Internet access, this does NOT interrupt your use of your home telephone or your cable TV service, as one common myth says. For DSL, you were previously required to have a telephone line in your home, but there are now even services in select cities where this is no longer a requirement. The services are more stable and reliable today, and continue to improve as the technology advances.

Nationwide DSL Internet Service and Cable Internet ServiceIt goes without saying that having fast and reliable Internet access at home is important in today's world. However, some locations cannot get DSL or cable Internet service. For cable, it is simply because the carrier or vendors are not currently servicing the area, and who knows when or even IF they plan to. For DSL, it may be a distance limitation, where the farther away your home is from the signal distribution point, the less likely that you can get a reliable signal. In situations like this, what are your options? You could continue to use a dial-up Internet connection, which can be had for around $10-$12 per month in most areas. Dial-up Internet connections are not fast, not even close to what DSL or cable can provide, but it may be an option to consider, depending on your requirements. A satellite Internet connection is faster than a dial-up connection, but many users report frequent speed problems and fluctuations, as well as some problems during poor weather. |

Cable or DSL Broadband? I've been asked this question so many times I thought I'd put my thoughts down here for you to read. Let's start by pointing out a couple things first. First off, depending on where you live, you may not have a choice of access. Satellite may be your only choice, which makes this null and void. Don't fret, satellite is better than any dial-up and the contract lengths are generally 12-14 months in length. It will cost a bit more, given the extra equipment involved, but it certainly beats dial-up (if you can afford it). |

Aboard The Broadband-Wagon 'Broadband' is the general term used to refer to high-speed information transmission over networks, and nowadays is used increasingly to mean a fast Internet connection. The term has more to do with the electrical waveform ('signal') being transmitted. The signal can come to you through a variety of physical arrangements: a DSL line, a T1 line, a TV cable, a wireless link and even your utility power line. Which physical arrangement is best for you depends a great deal on what is available in your geographical area and the price... |
