Broadband - Southampton suppliers
Broadband is a fast, permanent internet connection.
Not only is it 10 to 100 times faster then a dial-up account, it doesn't tie up the phone line so you can make and receive calls normally while you use the internet.
You pay a flat monthly fee for an 'always on' connection, so there's no need to dial in to get online. Just turn on the computer and you're connected.
Because of the speed, as well as making web pages and e-mails arrive almost instantly, broadband opens up a whole new world of content.
With a broadband connection you can enjoy the full range of internet services.
You will be able to download TV programmes, music and software, share photos, watch movies and play online games with thousands of other people.
Broadband means the end of the World Wide Wait (as some people dubbed dial-up connections).
It makes the internet more enjoyable, entertaining and interactive.
