Advantages of Broadband

Broadband is the technology that allows you to send and receive information over the Internet at super-fast speeds, without blocking your telephone lines.

• Broadband loads information up to 30 times faster than Dial-up Internet. That means you no longer need to make a cup of tea while your favourite website is ‘loading’, it downloads before you can say ‘white with one’.
• There is no fear of ‘drop-out’. Broadband will never hang up on you because it is “always on”. This saves you the annoyance and cost of repeated local calls that you pay with standard dial-up Internet each time you log on.
• Broadband keeps your phone line free. Gone are the days of a permanently engaged telephone signal at home because someone is on the Internet. You can actually use the phone and the net at the same time.
• You can download larger files, such as video and movie clips, and transfer large files of text or graphics at super high speeds. Broadband is also perfect for delivering instant access to web pages that are impossible to view on a standard dial-up connection.
• You can connect multiple computers to the Internet through the same connection at the same time—no more arguments over who uses the Internet first!
• Conquer the world...in cyberspace at least! Broadband enables you to play games online, faster, longer, fun for everyone.
