Broadband: Section 2

Making Connections: Dial-up Vs Broadband

There are some pros and cons here. Broadband offers much, much quicker speeds for transmitting information.

However, dial-up is universally available whereas access to broadband is still patchy but growing daily.

Dial-Up may still be a cheaper option if you only need to be online for a short time every day, say for domestic email use only.

For constant online access during, say, working hours of 8am-6pm Monday to Saturday, broadband is likely to be cheaper, especially if access time is unmetered.

Broadband is better for connecting a network to the Internet.

You will need to weigh the issues and make up your own mind.
