Broadband FAQ's

How Does Broadband Work?

• Broadband is the method of sending and receiving data over high speed networks.

It is most commonly associated with a far faster way of connecting your computer to the internet than is possible through a conventional dial up method, which uses standard telephone networks.

Broadband connections that use cable or ADSL mean there's greater capacity to send data then over standard telephone networks. This means that you can receive far more information to your computer in the same period of time than a conventional dial up connection - allowing you to view web pages quicker, download files faster and send and receive emails without having to wait.
