Broadband technology refers to high-speed Internet access, replacing analogue modems. Broadband can be delivered through various methods such as ADSL, Cable, and satellite. Using a broadband router, multiple computers can share an Internet connection at home or in the office.
Broadband technology has revolutionized the way we access and utilize the Internet, making it faster and more reliable than ever before. With the ability to stream high-definition videos, video conference with colleagues around the world, and download large files in a matter of seconds, broadband has become an essential part of modern life. Whether for work, entertainment, or staying connected with loved ones, broadband technology has truly changed the way we live and work in the digital age.
Broadband uses a technology called NAT – Network Address Translation -, this is the use of a single IP address by all the computers in your home and office to connect and use the Internet at the same time.
The broadband connection speed to the Internet is extremely high, it supports data, voice and video information
It is considered broad in the sense that multiple kinds of information can be transmitted across the wire, or band.
Additionally, with broadband, you can surf the web without delay, watch streaming videos with audio, and make a phone a call all at the same time. One of the interesting things about the Broadband connection is, that it’s always on, you don’t have to waste time dialling into a service provider, it comes on as soon as your computer is powered on.

Broadband Speed
The broadband speed difference is huge. It has revolutionized so much more of the way we use the Internet to the previous dial-up Internet.
The broadband like its predecessors, information travels in two directions. Downstream and Upstream.
Downstream refers to information going from the Internet to your computer, like when a new web page is loaded.
Upstream refers to information from your computer to the Internet, like the click of the mouse- that tells a web page where you’d like to go next.
Firstly, Internet transfer speeds are measured in kilobits per second and megabits per second, don’t mistake it for kilobytes and megabytes, we use these terms when we talk about hard disks and files.
You have to keep in mind that the above data could be affected by your PC processing speed, viruses etc.
