Types of telecommunication connections
Dialup, DSL, Cable.
Internet service is provided in several manners: dialup (typically slow), DSL (requires a phone line and only available in some areas), cable (requires a cable connection) or satellite (has large latency) - Your best option is DSL - check with your phone line provider to see if DSL is available at your location.

Dialup - Uses phone line to connect slowest internet speed Satellite - faster than dialup and can be used in most areas where DSL and Cable are not around DSL - Faster and sometimes near speed as Satellite, cheaper than satellite Cable - Fastest (other than Fios) a tad bit more unreliable than DSL but cheaper Fios - Fastest and most reliable, also most expensive There are others like T1 and T3 but those are for businesses.
It depends on the cable! If it's a standard LAN/Ethernet/RJ-45/'Giant Phone Cord', it plugs into (usually) the only port on the computer's back that will fit! If the cable is a phone cable, and you use dialup, you will need a modem. Most computers don't have modems in them anymore, because dialup was officially retired in 2004, and exists now for legacy reasons only. Dialup is not intended for normal internet usage. If you have DSL and it's a phone cable, you'll need a DSL modem. This should have been provided by your ISP. If it's a large round cable with a single pointy end (a coaxial cable), then you will need a cable modem. This should have been provided provided by your ISP. If it doesn't look like anything I described? You need to contact your ISP.
I think it would all depend on what you are looking for. Do you want cable, dsl, or dialup. Most of the time people go with internet from there phone or cable provider. There are different plans with different speeds depending on your needs.
"Quest is an internet website designer, and Qwest provides DSL, cable, satellite, wireless and dialup internet services. Web design by Quest is not free."
I'm not sure what you mean by "broadband"; I'm assuming you mean wireless. So: wireless is out, satellite is likely out ("deep in a valley", though if the valley is broad enough or runs in the right direction it could work), DSL is PROBALY out ("remote area" ... DSL only works fairly near the phone company's central office). Cable may be an option if the area is served by cable and the cable provider offers it. If not, you're pretty much stuck with dialup.
if it is a dialup modem there are some free dial up internet providers but for a cable/dsl modem this is not possible as you would need a isp to provision the modem on their network
DSL and cable modem. One shares internet with telephone line, the other shares it with television cable.
Dial up,cable and dsl are three types of?
