Stealing the Internet From Your Neighbor is Easier Than You Think! But DON’T Do It!
I’ve been a computer technician for over 35 years. When Wi-Fi first came out I thought, “This is what I’ve been waiting for… now I can connect to my laptop from anywhere in the house.” I was right! Unfortunately, so could lots of other people!
Actually, I was probably the first one to connect to my wireless router from one of my neighbors. I’d taken my laptop over to his house to help him design an Excel spreadsheet and while I was working, I noticed that my laptop was ‘on-line.’ Even though I was four houses away and across the street, probably 200 feet at least, the signal was rock-solid and I could surf the Net at will.

What Will Britain’s Fastest Broadband Package Be Like?
The imminent broadband speed of 50Mbps promised by Virgin Media is music to the ears of any serious web user or those who would like an extra-fast broadband connection to watch TV programmes and films online – especially if it is being streamed.
The rumour mill, though, has it that Virgin Media’s upload speed (the speed at which you can send things to the web) will be just 1.5Mbps.

BT Broadband – Great Services at Reasonable Prices
A survey has revealed that BT Broadband is the largest ISP in UK with approximately 4,600,00 subscribers. Earlier, it carried a brand-name of BT Yahoo! Broadband and BT Openworld. It is the product of a very successful group called BT Group plc. BT Broadband offers many broadband services at extremely reasonable and attractive prices. It provides broadband as cabled connection, through wi-fi networks and the latest mobile broadband services. Its carefully designed home and business packages fulfill requirements of different users having varied expectations from their connections. Cost of these packages fluctuates according to the prices offered by other service providers.
Broadband connection has three basic elements that define its efficacy and performance. These are availability of the service provider, speed of the connection and the download limit. Availability refers to the provider’s influence and network coverage in an area. BT Broadband has widespread network and latest infrastructure covering majority of UK. Its strength and influence in remote areas is acknowledged by all. Better availability ensures improved broadband services and cheap prices. Speed of any connection is a combination of many factors. Wiring, type of package and network coverage are few important elements that influences the speed. BT Broadband delivers excellent speeds for all their connections. It also maintains minimum difference between the actual speed and the maximum speed for any connection. Many service providers creates false impression regarding their connections by advertising only maximum speeds. While their actual speeds are significantly lower than that. BT Broadband offers various download limits with their packages. Unlimited download deals are also available with their connections. The name assigned to these packages is misleading as they are not truly unlimited. There is a fixed limit covered under the fair usage policy associated with them. BT packages are extremely transparent about such policies and abreast consumers with every necessary information. Service providers tend to charge users for exceeding their download limits without any warnings. This hidden cost is playing a huge role in UK broadband market. Service providers capitalize on the negligence and poor knowledge of users. Broadband bills also carry paper cost and non direct debit payment as additional cost which are actually hidden charges. These costs are mentioned in fine black print at the end of contract.

How Home and Business Broadband Differ
Unless you have your own business it is unlikely you have any knowledge of the difference between home broadband and business broadband. Why would you need that information? It doesn’t affect you either way. On the other hand if you own your own business or are in a position with your employer that you make decisions regarding the computer usage, you will perhaps be interested in the differences between the two of them.
One of the differences that most people note is price. In most cases a business broadband account will cost more than a home broadband account. One of the reasons that may be is because of the need for quick response from service technicians. In the effect that there is a problem with the connection, it is essential for a technician to respond quickly to address the problem. Although some home broadband users may be operating a business from home, unless they have a business account they will not receive the same level of service they would if they were paying for a business broadband account.
