There are a few different types of Broadband, however the main ones you need to know about are ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) and Cable. The others less common ones are Satellite and Wireless ISP. Satellite and Wireless ISP are used in remote areas where broadband access is unavailable as a rule they cost more than the more common ADSL and cable and are seldom used when the less expensive options are available. Wireless ISP uses a Wi-Fi radio system to connect to the internet rather than your phone line. This wireless broadband should not be confused with a wireless router as explained later. And satellite broadband uses a telephone line to request the information and a satellite dish to receive the information. Down sides of this are the cost and the time delay that can be experienced due to the distance the signal has to travel.
