Broadband speed
Broadband comes in many different speeds, that is the speed with which data travels up and down your phone line or cable network. The standard entry level is now 8Mb, 160X faster than a dial-up internet connection.
Although 8Mb is now the standard broadband speed, broadband is becoming cheaper and cheaper and broadband speeds of up to 24Mb are achievable down your phone line or up to 50Mb via cable. The faster your broadband, the more enjoyable the whole online experience; internet pages load faster, movies and music download faster, online gaming is awesome.
