Now that you understand the importance of connecting to the Internet in homes, the next question is: what is the best connection for your needs?
Basically, there are two ways to connect to the house:
- Wired broadband [With the option of getting a fixed landline]
- Wireless connections like 3G and 4G keys, SIM cards for mobile phones and Wi-Fi hotspots.
Wired broadband:
This is a time-tested and successful technology that mainly works on a combination of optical fibers and copper wires. The cable will be distributed to your home and connected to a Wi-Fi modem. Modems, as a rule, have the ability to connect more than 10 devices. [Smartphones, tablets, laptops, desktops] without wires.
Wireless Internet:
You can connect your home systems wirelessly using 4G or 3G keys or Wi-Fi hot spots. You can also connect your devices to mobile data. [With SIM cards] through a portable access point or binding.
Comparison:
1. Broadband connections are very stable and even faster than wireless keys and SIM cards in many places.
2. Installation and tariffs of wired broadband connections are usually cheaper than 3G and 4G plans.
3. Wireless settings allow you to use 1 or fewer devices, and you need to manually create a hot spot. On the other hand, with a wired broadband network, you can use 1 account to automatically provide the Internet to all devices in all homes.
4. Wireless connections may be the only available option for rural areas, since optical wiring may not reach some remote locations. However, broadband connections cover more than 70% of places in cities, and networks are constantly growing.
Conclusion:
If you need the Internet exclusively for your home, then it makes sense to use wired broadband access with a Wi-Fi modem. The tariff will not only be cheaper, but will also be more stable.
