Business ADSL usually has better contention rates than home.

Most buiness's i would say have leased lines tho.

DaveEscos

would you call it a 'broadband connection' though Ding?

Joris_FRST

nope, you would call it a "leased line"

If they have a business broadband solution in place, you would call it broadband.

Adsl connection is adsl regardless of what you call it dave

Leased line is leased line
Cable is cable etc....

Markb_s1

all true, however, you could call all of these broadband!

DaveEscos

cheers Mark! thats waht i was after!

hope alls well btw

Joris_FRST

you can't call leased line broadband, as you can have a 64kb leased line too.

Broadband is ADSL / Cable, nothing else really ?

Markb_s1

you do have a point there but does anyone actually still use these?

at the end of the day, as described by Dave, a Large Corporate connection could be called broadband. It's certainly not going to be narrowband..... especially where he works.

All good thanks Dave Hope it's all going well for you too mate!
