Why do I need High Speed Internet?


Is Cable, DSL, DialUp or Satellite Internet best for me?
Internet Connections Types Compared

DialUp is available almost everywhere in the United States. The primary advantage of DialUp is its low cost. Monthy plans are available for less than $6/month.

Cable Internet availability depends on your local provider. It comes in over the same wires that your cable does. This is a good option if you already get cable TV service. Generally, the cable company can split off of your existing cable line and connect your computer. If you don't have cable service already, many companies offer free setup and some will even give you cash back for signing up! We can help you find Cable Internet providers in your area.

DSL availability depends on your local provider. DSL comes in through the same wires as your phone line. It uses higher (inaudible) frequencies and you can be online at the same time as you use your phone. DSL typically offers the best upload speed compared to other BroadBand services. This is especially convenient if you send e-mails with large attachments or post photos and video to websites.

Satellite Internet is available anywhere that you have a clear view of the southern sky. The best part about Satellite Internet is that it is available almost anywhere. You can even put a dish on your RV and have a portable high speed connection as you tour the country (special equipment may be required.)

What's so great about BroadBand Internet?

No more waiting! You have an always-on connection. No busy signals. No more waiting for your computer to connect. No more waiting for web pages to load. No more waiting to download e-mail. Most BroadBand Internet connections are 100 times faster than dialup. Do you think you can keep up?

Should I worry about hackers if my Internet connection is always on?

Kudos to you for recognizing the threat that hackers pose on the internet. We have found a few resources that will help you and your family be safer online. Everyone should have Anti-Virus and a Firewall protecting their computer. Both of these are software packages you can download and install right now for immediate protection!
