Internet Access Poll Results

Written by Nickel - One Comment

While I realize that sites such as mine attract a highly non-random sample of web surfers, I was still a bit surprised by the fact that over 90% of all respondents have a broadband connection. More specifically, 55% reported having a cable connection, followed by 35% with DSL, and a handful of people with satellite internet or broadband wireless. With respect to dialup access, just 5% of respondents reported using a 56k modem. Click here to see the full results (or to participate if you haven’t had a chance to do so yet).

  1. Seems like a switch is being made to broadband from the old frustrating dial-up. For me DSL has been a blessing. I quickly forgot the struggles of dialing up every time I wanted to access the internet. And now with wireless DSL I am floating in the cyber clouds.
