Fastest to Slowest Internet Connections

What type of Internet connection is best for your business depends on your unique needs. Those that use the Internet to connect to the Web and check email will not need a fast connection, but businesses that use videoconferencing and streaming media frequently will need higher speeds. Be aware that higher Internet speeds mean higher monthly fees, however.

Fiber

Fiber is the fastest way to access the Internet, but it's also the most expensive. Fiber converts electrical signals to light which travels through tiny glass filaments. Transmission speeds vary greatly depending on several factors, including the distance between the transmitting location and the receiving location, the amount of bandwidth allotted by the Internet service provider, and use of the fiber-optic lines for other services. The FCC says that most modern fiber connections transmit at speeds of tens to hundreds of Mbps faster than other broadband options.

Cable

Cable Internet connections use coaxial lines run by cable companies to offer Internet access to their consumers. The coaxial cable line is connected to the back of a modem, and an Ethernet cable line runs from the modem to a computer (or a router if the Internet connection is shared). Cable Internet is an "always-on" connection, and you can generally expect speeds of 512Kbps to as much as 20Mbps.

Satellite

If you live in a rural or otherwise isolated area, you may find satellite-based Internet to be your only option for high-speed Internet access. A satellite dish is installed at the receiving location and Internet signals are sent and received by satellites orbiting the earth. Connection speeds vary greatly but are close to that of cable and DSL. One downside, however, is the cost: typically it is more expensive than cable and DSL, although not quite as expensive as fiber connections.

DSL

DSL uses telephone lines to transmit Internet data, and speeds are generally the same as cable Internet and satellite connections. The data signal uses an unused portions of the telephone line to provide Internet access, allowing both a data and voice connection to share the same telephone line simultaneously. The availability of DSL is highly dependent on your distance from the telephone company's facility and phone line conditions. Noisy phone lines are very disruptive to DSL signals.

Wireless

Mobile professionals will find wireless Internet sufficient for their needs. Wireless broadband can come in the form of data connections through the cellular network, or through Wi-Fi routers that allow several users to share a single Internet connection of any of the above technologies. Connection speeds can be comparable to slower cable and DSL connections, but can be far slower depending on the amount of customers sharing the connection, the technology used by the transmitting facility, and distance from the transmitter. It also can be limited by the speed of the Wi-Fi technology: for example, the top speed of the current wireless standard, 802.11n, is 54Mbps (although some routers support speeds of up to 600Mbps using multi-channel technology).

Dial-up

Dial-up is by far the slowest of all Internet connections available. Use of dial-up requires a separate phone line, since users must connect via the telephone to their Internet service provider. Speeds max out at about 56Kbps, which is only about a tenth of the speed of even the slowest broadband connections. Dial-up use is only recommended when no other option is available.

WORLD’S TOP 10 COUNTRIES WITH SLOW INTERNET CONNECTION


Internet the way of getting information, entertaining, is being a most important part of life. When we start to click tabs or links in internet we want them to open as quickly as possible because we are eager to get what we want. What if the internet connection itself is slow? In world there are many countries which have slow internet connections. Think about those people who live in those countries and be calm that you are lucky if you do not belong one of them. Here we have world’s top 10 countries which have slow internet connection among of the countries which have provided internet facilities.
According to the research held previous year in the crowd of the internet using countries the slow internet connection having countries are as below:

10. Malaysia:

Malaysia

Malaysia is the country located in Southeast Asia. In Malaysia internet was started form 1995 A.D. It is the first country which has slowest internet connection. It has 16% internet connection below the speed of 256 kbps. This is the tenth highest percentage of slow internet connections. Though it has slowest speed, this problem was decreased by 4.0% from the last quarter. This country is overcoming the problem in the speed of tortoise. There is no such progress in the problem of overcoming the slow internet connection problem.

9. Kazakhstan:
