How do you connect to the internet?

I thought an interesting survey would be to see how members to connect to the internet. I suspect these days it would probably be broadband, years ago, obviously dial up. Also let us know what service provider you use and why you connect to the internet using the method that you use

I am still on dial up, as in my area broadband is not available as of yet, which is the case in many rural locations in Thailand

Definition:

A local area network, or LAN, is a network of connected computers in a room, building, or set of buildings. Local area networks have been around since the beginning of computer use

The Internet is a wide area network, or WAN, which is distinct from a LAN. In contrast to the term Internet, local area networks are often called intranets, though sometimes this term refers to a cluster of LANs

ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line, or DSL for short) is a high-speed Internet access service that utilizes existing copper telephones lines to send and receive data at speeds that far exceed conventional dial-up modems

Very interesting to see 50% are dialup, but the availability of broadband or other high speed connectivity is lacking in many countries, including where I live in the US.
Temporarily I am on dialup, was going to move from Satellite to DSL, for "bundling services" with Qwest, but then found out DSL is not offered where I live. If only I lived 1 mile down the road .... Sad
Returning to satellite by next week. Dialup is so frustrating to use after enjoying high speed.
