Cheap Broadband: best offers

W hat should you look for in your broadband connection? If you are looking for the cheap broadband and the best offers, here is a look at the things you need to look for in your broadband plan. ● The type of broadband connection you are looking for greatly depends on what kind of a web user you are. An average web user who browses online, uses email and Youtube can get by with a mere 5GB a month. On the other hand, a heavy end web user who browses, runs and downloads varied applications, streams and games online, downloads movies, games and music may need up to 40-50GB a month and should choose an unlimited plan. ● The choice of a broadband connection also depends on the number of people consuming the service- a family of three or four average to moderate web users will need an unlimited plan. Where internet is accessed by multiple gadgets, a heavy end usage plan with WiFi access is more suitable. ● The choice of connection is a comparative selection among many internet service providers. Choose an ISP that is easily available, offers good speed and data package at an affordable subscription price. For home and work usage, DSL and Fibre-optic internet providers are best suited. In absence of these two, one may choose a satellite or cable connection. ● Internet speed is another important thing to look out for. Most more than average users are sufficed with a 5mbps speed. But a very heavy end user might like to choose a higher speed. With regard to speed, Fibre-optic connections offer the best speed of up to 500mbps, with DSL coming in second. Cable connections though offering fast internet, slows down due to many local users. [Photo: technobuffalo.com]
