How much is high speed Internet for Cox Internet?

Cox gets third-place in some creditable rankings in the East and West regions of the country, and it comes in either first or second for user satisfaction (against Verizon) in other areas. So, by all accounts, no, Cox does not have *the* best high speed internet available.That said, Cox might be the only available service to you, depending on where you are. And it might be the best of your available options, depending on where you are. In no case is Cox a bad choice: at its worst, it's third in a long list of contenders.

How much does Sky broadband cost?

The price of a sky phone line depends on various factors like from which buyer one purchases the phone line and how much the seller wants for it. The average cost is around $20 a month, but can increase to $30 a month.

What is the meaning of MBPS in Internet speed?

MBPS means Mega byte per second .It is actually the band width.In digital communication Bandwidth is measured in byte/second.

Internet speed is usually quoted in Megabits per second. 1 byte = 8 bits.

Is 768 Kbps considered high speed?

It might refer to high speed internet but for todays applications that is really slow. You would not be able to stream, download or do a lot of stuff with that kind of speed. There is a reason they use Mbps for speed nowadays. Look into IVC Telecom for high speed internet plans in Canada.

Does a modem offer the fastest connection speed?

no, a modem is slow and you would be better buying a router

Can you connect the Cricket wireless USB broadband to a wireless router?

The short answer is that you can bridge connections and all but its complicated and the way my cricket works you would not want to connect a router of any kind. The speed is slow enough that i would not connect more than one computer even if its possible. What a pessimistic answer. Answer:

The way it was made should tell you that it's NOT recommended and probably difficult or nearly impossible to use with a router! It uses XP's dial-up networking (or better known as RAS) to make a connection to the internet... since the router doesn't have RAS, the modem would have NO way to make a connection without a computer! So, in essence, the only way is to go through the computer first... then route the traffic to the router or use ICS on your network... either is not really recommended as this modem isn't really fast enough to support more than one computer, as mentioned. So you should heed the answer! If you are only connecting to one computer, then just use ICS (Internet Connection Sharing)... be sure to have good firewalls on BOTH computers! More than one computer using the internet connection is NOT recommended as performance will suffer greatly... it's also NOT recommended connection for gamers and people using p2p, etc. Look elsewhere if you are a heavy duty user! I connected it to wireless router. You make good points about it not being made for that purpose but it's not "nearly impossible" It was very simple. Yes you have to go through the computer first, but NO it doesn't make performance suffer. Cricket broadband isn't all that great performance wise PERIOD. But if you already have it you may as well get the same inconsistant service on ALL your comp. for the same price you were paying to have it on 1 comp. My house is filled with "v-idiot gamers" and"shySpace" users and we don't have any problems.

What products and services are offered by BT Broadband?

There are many types of products offered by BT Broadband. One can choose a package deal that best suits their needs. There are family protection services, unlimited wi-fi and smart talk to name a few.

What is the highest speed of wifi?

Depending on your service provider your speed of wireless internet service can vary about 20 Mbps. The average performance from a cable modem connection is appoximately 30 Mbps, where the average for a DSL connection is 20 Mbps.

Is 6.5 MBPS fast?

6 Mbps, or 6 Megabits per second, or 768 Kilobytes per second.

That means every 1 second there are 768 Kilobytes of data transfered.

If You are talking about internet speed, for year 2010 is pretty good speed.

You can download a movie in few hours, song in few seconds...

As of 7/31/2010, average Cable companies provide 4 to 12 mbit connections. However, in reality, you rarely get more than 1/2 of this.

DSL has a slightly higher rate of utilization (60-70%), and are typically sold from 256 kbit to 10mbit, varying wildly. Ultimately, the two are very, very similar in average, but performance differences from location to location based on the company, technology, condition of cable or DSL lines, etc.

Dialup is typically called 56k but this is a different measurement, called 'kilobauds'. A 56k connection at a high rate (48k) can average 9 KB/s or 72kbit.

Most cellular internet lines average 256 kbit.

Most satellite averages 1mbit or less. (Higher is theoretically possible, but not under realistic, sustained usage.)

Verizon FiOS and other FiOS lines average 10 to 40mbit.

First-level fiber optic lines, such as OC1, averages 51mbit. NOT to be confused with T1, which is NOT fiber optic, and averages 1.5mbit. T3 averages 45mbit.

Overall, 6mbit is approximately an 'average' internet connection speed.

it should be noted there is also an 'upload' speed, which is typically MUCH lower than your download.

For example, it's usually a 1:8 ratio for cable. In other words, an 8mbit cable line usually have 1mbit of upload. This is how fast you SEND files, rather than RECEIVE them.

DSL is usually a 1:4 ratio, and a large reason for DSL's continued and growing popularity. It is preferable for businesses or users who send more than they receive.

T1, T3, and OC3 have a 1:1 ratio, uploading and downloading equally.

Dialup is usually a 1:2 ratio. IE, if they receive at 8 KB/s, they send at 4 KB/s. But this is technically lower as the act of sending also uses some of the downstream, and since they are already slow, a large outgoing transfer causes a much bigger bottleneck.

If the upstream is too low to support the downstream, it can also limit the downstream.

Typically, you need 1 mbit of upstream for every 5.5 mbit of downstream. So having 1mbit of up and 12mbit of down is a misnomer: You will be limited to only 5.5mbit of actual downstream. This varies based on the packet size, settings, distance of carrier, and protocol (such as IP, IPS, IPX, UDP, etc.) but is a good general rule. Some cable and DSL companies have come under scrutiny as a result of this indescrepency, as has Verizon for their FiOS service.

What is the worldwideweb?

Definition: The term WWW refers to the World Wide Web or simply the Web. The World Wide Web consists of all the public Web sites connected to the Internet worldwide, including the client devices (such as computers and

cell phones) that access Web content. The WWW is just one of many

applications of the Internet and computer networks.

The World Web is based on these technologies:

•HTML - Hypertext Markup Language

•HTTP - Hypertext Transfer Protocol

•Web servers and Web browsers

HTML

HTML is a computer language devised to allow website creation.

These websites can then be viewed by anyone else connected to the Internet.

It is relatively easy to learn, with the basics being accessible to most

people in one sitting; and quite powerful in what it allows you to create.

It is constantly undergoing revision and evolution to meet the demands and

requirements of the growing Internet audience under the direction of the

» W3C, the organisation charged with designing and maintaining the language.

The definition of HTML is HyperText Markup Language.

•HyperText is the method by which you move around on the web - by clicking on special text called hyperlinks which bring

you to the next page. The fact that it is hyper just means it is not linear - i.e. you can go to any place on the Internet

whenever you want by clicking on links - there is no set order to do things in.

•Markup is what HTML tags do to the text inside them. They mark it as a certain type of text (italicised text, for example).

HTTP

HTTP - the Hypertext Transfer Protocol - provides a standard for Web browsers and servers to communicate. The definition of HTTP is a technical specification of a network protocol that software must implement. HTTP is an application layer network protocol built on top of TCP. HTTP clients (such as Web browsers) and servers communicate via HTTP request and response messages.

The three main HTTP message types are GET, POST, and HEAD.

Web browsers and web servers

Web browsers

Web browsers allows the user to access the information by traversing these hyperlinks. Web browser also executes the HTML code that is why the appearance of a wepage on different web browser is different. Generally web browsers are used for world wide web access but they can also be used for content retrieval in file systems. A list of popular web browsers include Internet

Explorer, Mozilla Fire Fox, Opera, safari, AOL .

Web servers

A Web server is a system program that accepts request from the client (web browser) and after its interpretation gives back the response Beside this a web server can also provide the following facilities

Authentication: The web server checks the request before sending back the response.

Content Compression : It can also cut off the size of the response content without altering the meaning.

Virtual host: It can also link various web sites using only one IP address

Support for file: IT provides support to large files.

Bandwidth throttling: To lower down the response time of any request and to serve a number of clients at any instant of time.

Web server also maps the path of the Uniform Resource Locator to:

nvm means never mind.

Which is better broadband or dsl?

No. A dial-up connection is limited in the US by FCC regulation to no more than 53K (Even though most dialup modems are capable of 56k). Most 'entry level' broadband is at least four times faster than a dial-up connection. Many are much, much faster.

How do find gateway address?

Go to start then run. Here you will either need to type in command and press enter. Once you do this you should see the command screen. Once you are here type in ipconfig and press enter, you should see the default gateway address there after pressing enter. Hope this helps! From Ryan @ Edutech Plus

What are advantages of high speed internet connection?

One major advantage of using higher bandwidth is that you will have higher download speeds because higher bandwidth offers a faster transfer rate. This can be a great feature for those who download large files.

How do you know if your modem is wireless?

Firstly, most modern laptops already have an internal wireless card installed. For other similar devices, which are portable and battery powered, they may or may not include a wireless card, however. In that case, you would have to check the specifications for that device and check if a wireless card can be possibly installed. Most desktops do not have their own wireless card installed by default, but you may purchase either an internal or external wireless card for the desktop.

Most computers have ports that allow human interface devices, such as keyboards and mouses to be connected. Laptops, for example, may already have a touchpad and a keyboard built in. If there are no human interface devices, you may get a wireless keyboard and/or mouse, which use radio frequencies or Bluetooth wireless.

Lastly, if you want online access, you will need a Wi-Fi or WiMAX card (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi for more information) to connect to a wireless network with an Internet connection.

Which company offers the best broadband prices?

Comcast offers broadband packages with cable television nationwide. Other localized companies offering broadband packages with cable television include:Wave Broadband in WA, OR and CAAstound Broadband in San Francisco

When did broadband come out?

1995. The company was netsat.They launched satellites through Hughes Corp and for $29.95 you can get satellite internet monthly.

They then merged with a company in 1996/97 called Worldcomm, but had to change its name to GlobeComm out of Hauppaugue, NY through a guy who I believe was named Edwin Love. The owner of Worldcomm/Globecomm funded the project and manufactured the gateways that linked all of the countries together all over the world from 1998-2001/02.

Do you need a phone line for dsl?

The first step in deploying wireless broadband is to get broadband service to your location. Broadband service is delivered by an ISP--Internet service provider--and can come to your home or place of business in different ways. The phone line is just one of many options today: * via a telephone line (DSL) * via the TV cable * via satellite * via a T-1 or T-3 dedicated circuit * via cellular wireless. Every one of these services will (or can*) terminate in a device that will provide one or more network ports, usually RJ-45 type. The high-speed network is available at that port, into which you can plug a computer, a router, a switch, other networked equipment, or a wireless router. The wireless router will have several network ports into which you can direct-connect networked devices (PCs, printers, VOIP devices, etc.). Plus the wireless router is your wireless access point, capable of communicating Ethernet traffic wirelessly to over a hundred different devices. Each device of course needs a wireless adapter to uphold its end of the communication and must be within range of the wireless router. So we see that it's quite possible to subscribe to a broadband service and supply wireless broadband access at your location without a telephone access point. _______________ * The cellular wireless access-point device usually plugs directly into a computer.

When was high speed internet invented?

Developed in the 1950's for use by the telephone companies, the T1 line is the basic digital line service for business applications. It has a fixed 1.5 Mbps bandwidth in each direction. That bandwidth can be allocated to network data, converged VoIP and computer data, or segregated into 24 individual standard telephone channels. If you need more bandwidth, T1 lines can be bonded to create typically 2x to 9x the individual line capacity. Usually higher bandwidth needs that these are assigned to DS3 circuits at 45 Mbps for cost reasons. However, in remote locations where there is no installed DS3 service, it might be cheaper to install multiple bonded T1 lines to get the required bandwidth. T3 bandwidth provides data transfer speeds of 45 megabits per second (mbps) and contains 672 individual channels that are each equal to voice grade telephone lines, capable of transmitting online video shoots, real time video, and large databases over a busy network. T3 bandwidth is by and large, used in large universities and companies that have large number of users in the same network.

How can you increase your ADSL Internet connection speed?

there are several ways to increase your internet speed (bandwidth)here are a few that i have found.


1. make sure your splitters/ filters are not faulty and are connected properly

2. make sure your home phone is connected to power (do NOT use a phone that runs fully off the adsl line) this changed my speed from 60KB/s to 220KB/s

3. make sure that the internet and phone lines use a line smaller than 2.0m

4. restart your router everyday(leave off for more than 60 seconds)

contact ISP provider to see if you have an outdated plan,

5. connect through ethernet cable

6. use a fast computer!

7. go into your account settings and make sure that a no noise level is set

8. do a speed test fromhttp://speedtest.net/and check if it has increased, if not im very sorry, contact the isp and ask them


Thanks
