Poll Results: Bandwidth Is Good

Poll Results: Bandwidth Is Good — The results of last week’s poll, which asked about the speed of Internet connections you regularly use at home or work, showed major spikes for the 33.6 to 56 Kbps (35 percent of respondents) and 1.5 to 5 Mbps (34 percent) answers. Those answers probably correspond most closely to home modem connections and to work T1 connections, but DSL connections are also popular, with roughly 25 percent of respondents weighing in at a variety of speeds. It’s likely that cable modem connections also fared well, though it’s harder to distinguish those numbers due to the overlap with T1 connections and the often significant difference between theoretical and actual throughputs.
