What is Broadband?
Broadband is an always-on Internet connection that gives you high-speed access and downloads for a flat rate monthly charge. Everything works faster, from downloading emails and files (such as pictures & mp3's) or streaming movies and radio.
How do I connect to Broadband services?
There are different ways of accessing the Internet using a broadband connection. While many are familiar with using a connection via their existing telephone or cable-TV line, you can also have broadband access using other proven technologies including wireless-radio, satellite and power lines.
Are there advantages, speed aside, to using Broadband?
Broadband services are 'always-on'. This means that broadband is a permanent connection to the Internet. A broadband connection lets you access the Internet from the minute you switch on your computer. There's no need to dial up to the Internet or log off once you've finished surfing.
Any other costs?
Once you have Broadband installed you simply pay a flat fee each month with no additional charges for the amount of time you spend online. Costs you should enquire about, depending on the service you choose:
- Once off installation Fee
- Possible download limit
- Possible Line rental fee
