Broadband Internet Access(abbreviated broadband) is also called high-speed access, which reflects the essence of this term - access to the Network at high speed - from 128 kbit/s and above. Today, when 100 Mbit/s is available to home subscribers, the concept of “high speed” has become subjective, depending on the needs of the user. But the term broadband access was introduced at a time of widespread dial-up access, when a connection is established using a modem connected to the public telephone network. This technology supports speeds of about a maximum of 56 kbit/s. Broadband involves the use of other technologies that provide significantly higher speeds. However, a connection, for example, using ADSL technology with a data transfer rate of 128 kbit/s also applies to broadband access.

From the history of broadband technology development

Around the beginning of the 2000s. dial-up technology has actively begun to be replaced by xDSL technologies (ADSL, HDSL, etc.), providing significantly higher access speeds. For example, ADSL2+ technology allows you to download data at a maximum speed of 24 Mbit/s, and upload at a speed of 3.5 Mbit/s. To obtain access using xDSL technology, a modem and a telephone line are also used, however, unlike dial-up access, the line is not completely occupied, that is, it remains possible to use both the telephone and the Internet at the same time.

Broadband today

Today, broadband Internet access is provided using various technologies - both wired and wireless. The first include the xDSL family of technologies, DOCSIS technology (Data Over Cable Service Interface Specifications - data transmission over a television cable), (data transmission in computer networks using twisted pair, optical cable or coaxial cable), the FTTx (fiber to the x) family of technologies - optical fiber to point X) and PLC (Power line communication - data transmission using power lines). As for FTTx, there are two basic varieties, although essentially they differ little from each other - (fiber to the building) and FTTH (fiber to the home).

Today, wireless Internet access technologies, especially mobile ones, are being actively introduced and developed. Fixed wireless access is provided through satellite Internet, technologies and fixed. However, many cellular operators and wireless providers already offer MTS and "" (""), which have market shares of 9.5% and 8.3%, respectively. These operators provide Internet access via both wired and wireless “third generation” technologies. For example, MTS, having acquired the company "", became a large operator of Internet access services using ADSL and ADSL2+ technologies, etc. Beeline, in addition to wireless access and mobile communications services, provides the Home Internet service using FTTB (fiber to the building) technology.

In fourth place with a broadband market share of 7.7% is the operator "", which provides Internet access services under the Dom.ru brand using FTTB technology. The Akado company closes the top five leaders in the Russian broadband market with a share of 3.8%. The operator provides Internet access using DOCSIS and Fast Ethernet technologies.

The remaining Russian broadband providers occupy less than half of the market - their share is 34.6%.

Penetration of broadband services

According to iKS-Consulting, in the first quarter of 2011, the penetration of broadband Internet access services in Russia reached 36%, the number of subscribers in the private segment amounted to 19 million users. But it should be taken into account that in local markets local players - for example, providers in St. Petersburg or providers in Moscow - can occupy significant shares, surpassing the indicated large players in the total subscriber base. In St. Petersburg, among such players: “” (InterZet), “” (the “” brand, which, however, is now part of Rostelecom), (“SkyNet”), etc. In Moscow, such companies can be mentioned.

Broadband Internet Connection

Setting up a PPPoE connection in Windows 7

Point-to-point Ethernet protocol is used to create temporary, dynamic broadband connections. If your Internet connection has a dynamic IP address, it means that your ISP assigns you a new IP address each time you connect. The PPPoE protocol makes this connection easy by sending your username and password. Again, only do this if you don't have a router that can do this.

Never use software provided by your ISP to connect via PPPoE. Instead, use the procedure described here.

To set up a PPPoE connection, open the Network and Sharing Center window and click on the Setup a connection or network link located below the existing connections. Select Connect to the Internet and click Next. Select Broadband PPPoE, enter your username and password provided by your ISP, and enable Remember this password. Enter a name for the connection (any name you like) and click the Connect button.

You can connect later using the Connect to a network pop-up window or modify this connection in the Network Connections window.

Nowadays, broadband Internet is a general term used to refer to various high-speed connection types.

The term broadband refers to the bandwidth of an Internet connection. Wideband literally means a wide range of frequencies used to transmit and receive data. Previously, Internet access was very slow due to the use of a dial-up connection. In addition to being slow, a dial-up connection also takes up the entire voice phone line. All these factors led to the fact that Dial-up was almost completely replaced by various broadband connection types.

The term bandwidth, in the case of computer networks and Internet connections, is typically used to refer to the speed at which data is transferred. Data transfer speed is usually measured in bits per second (bits). In a broadband connection, compared to a dial-up connection, the data transfer speed is very high. There are different types of broadband connections, with varying costs, speeds and availability.

ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line)

ADSL is the most commonly used broadband connection. Widely used for home users and commercial purposes. ADSL is a digital line that can be used to access the Internet without having to take up an entire telephone line. ADSL operates at speeds of 512 kbps or higher. In the case of ADSL, the incoming channel has a higher speed than the outgoing channel, which is why the term “asymmetric” arose.

SDSL (Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line)

SDSL is similar to ADSL and differs from it only in one aspect, in the ratio of incoming and outgoing line speeds. SDSL is characterized by the same speed when downloading and sending data. Home users generally do not need this. But some organizations require a high-bandwidth outgoing channel. This type of connection is more expensive than regular ADSL, but in case of commercial use, these costs are worth it.

Broadband Wireless

Wireless Internet connection is a common phenomenon today. Laptops, PDAs and mobile phones all require a wireless connection. The download speeds provided by various types of wireless broadband Internet access typically range from 128 Kbps to 2 Mbps.

Cable broadband internet

The Internet can be accessed through a cable television line. Cable television is currently very popular and is available in almost all major cities. Cable broadband Internet typically provides speeds from 2 Mbps to 8 Mbps. In terms of popularity, cable Internet successfully competes with ADSL.

Satellite Internet

All forms of broadband connections described above are locally limited, meaning they can only be used in a very limited area. Satellite communication is the solution to this problem. Satellite Internet can be either one-way or two-way. On satellite Internet, depending on the tariff and type of connection, speeds from 256 Kbit/sec. to 2 Mbit/sec are offered. This type of broadband Internet provides lower speeds than other types of broadband connections. In addition, the weather has a significant impact on the quality of the received signal.

Fiber Optic Internet

Fiber optic technology is a relatively new technology that converts electrical signals into light. The signal is then transmitted via fiber optic cable.

To build optical access networks, special devices are used, for example, stm 4 multiplexers, which can operate over 2 single-mode optical fibers. Support remote network management and upgrades.

Support the site, click on the button.........

Mobile broadband access currently uses mobile communication technologies WCDMA/HSPA (3.5G generation), HSPA+ (3.75G generation). 4G technologies are also used: WiMax and LTE.

Broadband Internet access via VSAT

Internet via VSAT is a method of accessing the Internet in which the user’s end equipment connects to a small earth satellite communication station (MZSSS, essentially a VSAT subscriber terminal), which, in turn, exchanges data with a satellite located in geostationary orbit . The satellite transmits data to the central earth satellite communication station (TsZSSS, essentially an operator station), which is already connected to terrestrial high-speed Internet channels.

Currently, broadband Internet access based on VSAT technology has found application both in distant geological exploration expeditions and in individual households. Generally speaking, for hard-to-reach and sparsely populated areas, satellite Internet is almost the only real opportunity to provide high-quality communications with the outside world - fast Internet and IP telephony.

Broadband Internet access using 3G/4G technologies

In addition, high-speed Internet access can be provided using 3G/4G technologies. If you need to choose between the Internet using 4G technology, for example, LTE Advanced or WiMax, and the Internet using VSAT technology, you can be guided by the following logic. 4G Internet will most likely be cheaper than VSAT Internet in the near future, so if where the intended Internet user is located there is coverage with fourth generation communications (that is, 4G), then 4G Internet is worth choosing. If not, then, naturally, you should use satellite Internet based on VSAT technology.

So, it turns out that when fourth-generation communications cover the entire territory that is not covered by fiber-optic communication lines (FOCL), VSAT Internet will no longer be needed? Most likely, this will not happen. The fact is that from economic calculations it follows that 3G/4G networks are simply not cost-effective to build at a distance of more than 20 - 30 kilometers from densely populated areas. Therefore, vast areas with low population density will apparently remain in the near foreseeable future the “patrimony” of Internet access via VSAT.

Broadband access via fiber optic link

Also, high-speed Internet access can be provided via fiber-optic communication lines. Let's look at this technology in more detail. A fiber-optic communication line (FOCL) is a data transmission channel that uses electromagnetic radiation of the optical (near-infrared) range as a carrier of an information signal, and optically transparent fiber (made of glass, quartz, etc.) as guide systems. Beam laser propagates in such a fiber, reflecting repeatedly from the fiber cladding due to the phenomenon of total internal reflection of electromagnetic waves at the interface between dielectrics with different refractive indices.
Low attenuation of light in optical fiber allows the use of fiber-optic communications over significant distances without the use of amplifiers. Fiber-optic communication lines are free from electromagnetic interference and are difficult to access for unauthorized use: it is technically extremely difficult to surreptitiously intercept a signal transmitted over an optical cable. In addition, thanks to the high carrier frequency and wide multiplexing capabilities, the throughput of fiber-optic lines is many times higher than the throughput of all other communication systems and can be measured in terabits per second.

If fiber-optic communication lines (FOCL) have already been installed in a certain area, then they should be preferred for Internet access in most cases. The exception is those few cases when completing the construction of terrestrial communication lines - wired or wireless (for example, radio relay communication lines) - for some technical and/or organizational reasons turns out to be inappropriate. If there is no fiber-optic communication line and 4G Internet, then, naturally, you should use VSAT.

Broadband Internet - application in modern reality

Hi all.

Nowadays, broadband Internet is ubiquitous - few people know this in practice, although millions of residents of our country use it every day. You also don’t quite understand what we’re talking about? Read this article - and you will find out what wide bands hide behind them, why such Internet is popular now, at what speed it works and what types there are.

The emergence of broadband (a little history)

You may remember a time when you could only connect to the Internet through a phone and a modem. It wasn’t that long ago - 10-15 years ago. The speed was painfully slow - a maximum of 256 Kbps. But we didn't know that it could be different, so we didn't complain.

Moreover, this is not the only inconvenience - the Internet also occupied the telephone line, so at a certain moment it was possible to use either one or another benefit of humanity. This happiness was called dial-up or

Further, the Internet evolved with the xDSL family of technologies, which also involved the use of a modem and a telephone, but with one caveat: you can surf the Internet and talk on the phone at the same time. The latter operates at the lowest frequencies, and the rest of the bandwidth is occupied by the Internet.

This type of connection has received the right to be called broadband.

In general, any Internet whose speed exceeds 256 Kb/s can be considered not only broadband, but also high-speed. The most common technology from the described family (ADSL2++) also meets this criterion. Its maximum speed is 48 Mbit/s.

It is quite possible that in the offices of enterprises and government agencies, where it is impossible to do without a landline telephone, they still use this type of communication. Be that as it may, it is already outliving its usefulness. What replaced it? Read on.

Types of broadband Internet

There are quite a lot of varieties. I won’t spam, but I’ll tell you about the most popular ones. Let's start with the highest speed.

Cable connection

This means that the provider runs a cable to your computer or router. It comes in different types: obsolete - coaxial; more modern, still in use today - twisted pair; the highest quality - .

The latter has several advantages over the previous two:

Firstly, it can transmit a signal over long distances without the use of amplifiers.
Secondly, such communication lines are not susceptible to electromagnetic interference.
Thirdly, the channels are protected from unauthorized access, because it is almost impossible to undetectably intercept a signal traveling along an optical fiber.

Among cable Internet technologies, the most widespread one is operating at a speed of 1-5 Gbit/s. There are also faster subtypes, but not all equipment is capable of operating at such speeds.

3G/4G

What modern person does not know these names? These are mobile wireless technologies. Such communications are offered mainly by mobile operators, as well as by individual providers specializing in this.

You can either order the appropriate service and surf from your phone or tablet using your phone SIM card, or get a special modem, also with a SIM card, and be able to access the Internet from your PC as well. Only in this case the speed will be higher than in the case of dial-up modem access.
The situation is this:

with high mobility (up to 120 km/h), a maximum speed of 144 kbit/s will be provided;
for slow movements (up to 3 km/h) - 384 kbit/s;
if your device stays put - 2048 Kbps.

4G is a promising technology, and therefore the requirements for it are higher: the minimum speed for mobile objects should be 100 Mbit/s, and for stationary objects - 1 Gbit/s. But in reality, we have not yet received such luxury.

VSAT

This is a method of connecting through a small satellite earth station. This type of Internet has been used since the 90s and will not become a thing of the past, because in our country there are still settlements remote from civilization where laying cables and expanding mobile networks is not profitable.

The approximate speed of such a connection is 4 Mbit/s.

Benefits of wide stripes

In conclusion, let's look at how modern broadband Internet differs from modem Internet:

As you already understood, mainly due to significantly increased speed;
Does not occupy a telephone line;
Provides continuous connection: you can go online at any time, but in the case of dial-up access you had to establish a new connection every time;
Assumes two-way communication, that is, data can be sent and received simultaneously;
Allows you to watch digital television.

I hope that you will visit my blog often;)

Broadband Internet

Broadband or high-speed Internet access is Internet access at data speeds that exceed the maximum possible through dial-up modem and public telephone network. It is carried out using wired, fiber-optic and wireless communication lines of various types.

If dial-up access has a bitrate limit of about 56 kbit/s and completely occupies the telephone line, then broadband technologies provide many times higher data exchange speeds and do not monopolize the telephone line. In addition to high speed, broadband access provides a continuous connection to the Internet (without the need to establish a dial-up connection) and so-called “two-way” communication, that is, the ability to both receive (“download”) and transmit (“upload”) information at high speeds.

There are mobile broadband access (mobile broadband access) and fixed broadband access. Fixed broadband access is based on wired connections, while mobile broadband access includes data transmission over wireless connections.

Mobile broadband access currently uses mobile communication technologies WCDMA/HSPA (3.5G generation), HSPA+ (3.75G generation). 4G technologies are also used: WiMax and LTE.

There is also broadband Internet access technology that operates in terrestrial digital terrestrial television networks DVB-T2.

Dial-up Internet access

Dial-up remote access is a service that allows a computer, using a modem and a public telephone network, to connect to another computer (access server) to initiate a data transfer session (for example, to access the Internet). Typically, dial-up refers only to Internet access on a home computer or remote modem access to a corporate network using the point-to-point PPP protocol (theoretically, the outdated SLIP protocol can also be used).

Availability

Telephone communication via modem does not require any additional infrastructure other than the telephone network. Since telephone points are available all over the world, this connection remains useful for travelers. Connecting to the network using a modem over a regular dial-up telephone line is the only choice available for most rural or remote areas where receiving broadband is not possible due to low population densities and requirements. Sometimes connecting to the internet via a modem can also be an alternative for people on a budget as it is often offered for free, although broadband is now increasingly available at lower prices in most countries. However, in some countries, dial-up Internet access remains the main one due to the high cost of broadband access, and sometimes the lack of demand for the service among the population. Dialing requires time to establish a connection (several seconds, depending on location) and handshaking before data transfer can occur.

The cost of dial-up Internet access is often determined by the time a user spends on the network, rather than by the volume of traffic. Dial-up access is a non-permanent or temporary connection, because at the request of the user or the ISP it will be disconnected sooner or later. Internet service providers often set a limit on the duration of the connection and disconnect the user after the allotted time, which requires reconnection.

Performance

Modern modem connections have a maximum theoretical speed of 56 kbit/s (when using the V.90 or V.92 protocols), although in practice the speed rarely exceeds 40-45 kbit/s, and in the vast majority of cases it remains at no more than 30 kbit/s /sec. Factors such as telephone line noise and the quality of the modem itself play a big role in communication speeds. In some cases, on a particularly noisy line, the speed may drop to 15 kbit/sec or less, for example in a hotel room where the telephone line has many branches. Dial-up dial-up connections typically have high latency, up to 400 milliseconds or more, which makes online gaming and video conferencing extremely difficult or completely impossible. Early first-person (3D-action) games are the most sensitive to response time, making modem play impractical.

Using compression to exceed 56 kbps

Today's V.42, V.42bis, and V.44 standards allow a modem to transmit data faster than its charging rate would imply. For example, a 53.3 kbps connection with V.44 can carry up to 53.3*6 = 320 kbps using pure text. The problem is that compression tends to get better or worse over time due to noise on the line or transmission of already compressed files (ZIP files, JPEG images, MP3 audio, MPEG video). On average, the modem will send compressed files at a speed of approximately 50 kbps, uncompressed files at 160 kbps, clear text at 320 kbps. In such situations, a small amount of memory in the modem (buffer) is used to hold data while it is compressed and sent across the telephone line, but to prevent buffer overflow, it sometimes becomes necessary to tell the computer to pause the transmission stream. This is achieved through hardware flow control using additional hooks on the modem computer connection. The computer is then going to deliver to the modem at some higher rate, such as 320 kbps, and the modem will tell the computer when to start or stop sending data.

ISP compression

When phone-based 56Kbit modems began to fall out of favor, some Internet service providers such as Netzero and Juno began using precompression to increase bandwidth and maintain their customer base. For example, Netscape ISP uses a compression program that compresses images, text, and other objects before sending them over the telephone line. Server-side compression is more efficient than the "continuous" compression supported by V.44 modems. Typically text on websites is compressed by 5%, thus increasing throughput to approximately 1000 kbps, and images are lossily compressed by 15-20%, increasing throughput to ~350 kbps.

The disadvantage of this approach is the loss of quality: the graphics acquire compression artifacts, but the speed increases dramatically and the user can manually select and view uncompressed images at any time. ISPs that use this approach advertise it as "DSL speed over regular phone lines" or simply "high-speed dialup."

Replacement with broadband network

Since (circa) 2000, DSL broadband Internet access has replaced modem access in many parts of the world. Broadband typically offers speeds ranging from 128 kbps and higher at a lower cost than dialup. The ever-increasing volume of content in such areas as video, entertainment portals, media, etc., no longer allows sites to work on dialup modems. However, in many areas dial-up access is still in demand, namely where high speed is not required. This is partly due to the fact that in some regions the construction of broadband networks is not economically viable or for one reason or another is impossible. Although wireless broadband technologies exist, high investment costs, low returns, and poor communication quality make it difficult to set up the necessary infrastructure. Some dialup carriers have responded to increasing competition by lowering rates to as low as 150 rubles per month, making dialup an attractive choice for those who simply want to read email or view news in text format.

Broadband or high-speed Internet access is Internet access with a data transfer rate exceeding the maximum possible using dial-up access using a modem and the public telephone network. It is carried out using wired, fiber-optic and wireless communication lines of various types.

There are mobile broadband access (mobile broadband) and fixed broadband...

The Internet boom of 1998-2001 took investors' money without return, but the optical fiber laid for this money did not go away. The user has experienced fast Internet, and the broadband access market today is growing much faster than other sectors of the telecommunications industry.

Broadband access, also known as broadband access, formally starts at 128 Kbps. It is at this speed, for example, that Russian schools are connected to the Internet. For the sake of simplicity, it would not be a big mistake to consider all Internet access other than a slow dial-up telephone connection to be broadband. The point, however, is not the data transfer speed as such, but the fact that with it the user has fundamentally new opportunities. Such as digital television over the Internet (IP TV), cheap - even free - and distance-independent voice communications (VoIP), the ability to remotely store large amounts of data, etc. Thanks to broadband networks and the services based on them, a special term has arisen - TMT...

The telephone lines, of course, remain; they are gradually being modernized. However, this does not prevent the same Ukrtelecom from connecting more and more new users to the fast Internet using ADSL technology. So much so that in terms of the number of subscribers (842 thousand people at the end of 2009), the national operator has long surpassed all other Internet providers. In second place is the Volya company, which has 380 thousand broadband access (broadband) subscribers.

Benefits of broadband Internet connection

Broadband is access to the Internet at high speed, which is completely different from access via a modem. Broadband Internet is called high-speed Internet due to its ability to transmit data at very high speeds over a regular telephone line. The greatest advantage of broadband is its speed, and also - your stay in the Internet world will last until you turn off your computer and not a minute less.

The benefits of broadband Internet are many. Today it is not difficult to get the full range of cable services, which means 24/7 Internet at the highest speed. But, although the Internet has long become popular, you can still meet people who need education on this subject. And, perhaps, the only thing that can differentiate the Internet is its speed.

Broadband Internet access (abbreviated as broadband) is also called high-speed access, which reflects the essence of this term - access to the Network at high speed - from 128 kbit/s and above. Today, when 100 Mbit/s is available to home subscribers, the concept of “high speed” has become subjective, depending on the needs of the user. But the term broadband access was introduced during the widespread use of dial-up access, when a connection to the Internet is established using a modem connected to the public telephone network. This technology supports speeds of about a maximum of 56 kbit/s. Broadband involves the use of other technologies that provide significantly higher speeds. However, a connection, for example, using ADSL technology with a data transfer rate of 128 kbit/s also refers to broadband access.
