11 best broadband packages

Broadband packages refer to subscription plans offered by internet service providers (ISPs) that provide high-speed internet access to homes and businesses. These packages can vary widely in terms of speed, pricing, and additional services. Here are some key points related to broadband packages:

Speed Tiers: Broadband packages are often categorized into different speed tiers, typically measured in megabits per second (Mbps) or gigabits per second (Gbps). Common speed tiers include 25 Mbps, 100 Mbps, 500 Mbps, and 1 Gbps. The higher the speed, the faster your internet connection will be for activities like streaming, online gaming, and downloading/uploading large files.
Pricing: The cost of broadband packages varies based on several factors, including the speed of the connection, the region where you live, and the ISP you choose. ISPs may offer different pricing structures, such as promotional rates for new customers or discounts for bundling with other services like TV or phone.
Data Caps: Some broadband packages come with data caps, which limit the amount of data you can use each month. If you exceed your data cap, you may incur additional charges or experience reduced speeds. Many ISPs, however, offer unlimited data packages for customers who require unrestricted internet usage.
Bundled Services: ISPs often provide bundled packages that include not only broadband internet but also other services like cable TV and home phone. Bundling services can sometimes result in cost savings compared to subscribing to each service separately.
Contract Length: Broadband packages may come with different contract lengths, such as month-to-month plans or contracts with fixed terms (e.g., 1-year or 2-year contracts).Longer contracts may offer lower monthly rates, but they can also lock you into a specific provider for an extended period.
Equipment: Some broadband packages include the rental or purchase of equipment like modems and routers. In some cases, you may have the option to use your own compatible equipment, which can save on rental fees.
Availability: The availability of broadband packages can vary depending on your location. Rural areas may have limited options compared to urban areas where multiple ISPs compete.
Customer Support: Consider the quality of customer support and technical assistance offered by ISPs when choosing a broadband package. Good customer support can be crucial in resolving issues and ensuring a reliable connection.
Streaming and Online Gaming: If you're a heavy streamer or online gamer, you'll want to choose a broadband package with sufficient speed and low latency to provide a smooth and lag-free experience.
Upgrades and Downgrades: Most ISPs allow customers to upgrade or downgrade their broadband packages based on changing needs. It's important to have flexibility in case your requirements change over time.

When selecting a broadband package, it's essential to assess your specific internet needs, budget, and the offerings available in your area. Comparing packages from different ISPs can help you find the best fit for your requirements.

Product description

Share Your High-Speed Internet Connection Throughout Your Home or Office Think of the EtherFast Cable/DSL Router with 8-Port Switch as a kind of splitter for your Internet connection. Just connect your DSL or Cable Modem to the Router, and all the computers in your home or office can share the Internet -- all at the same time. The built-in 8-port switch lets you attach eight local PCs directly, or daisy-chain out to more hubs and switches as your network grows. Once your computers are connected to the Internet through the Router, they can communicate with each other too, sharing resources and files. All your computers can print on a shared printer connected anywhere in the building. And you can share all kinds of files between computers -- music, digital pictures, and other documents. Keep all your digital music on one computer, and listen to it anywhere in the house. Organize all of your digital pictures in one place, to simplify finding the ones you want, and ease backup to CD-R. Play head-to-head computer games within the household, or against Internet opponents.

A simple and inexpensive way to share your one IP address over your entire network, the Linksys EtherFast cable/DSL router connects up to 253 PCs to a high-speed broadband Internet connection or to a Fast Ethernet or Ethernet backbone. Configurable as a DHCP server or client, the EtherFast cable/DSL router acts as the only externally recognized Internet gateway on your local area network (LAN). The router can be configured via SNMP to filter internal users' access to the Internet and serve as an Internet firewall against intruders.

The router features advanced functions such as dynamic and static port routing, DMZ hosting, filtering, forwarding, and quality-of-service capabilities. All of these functions can be easily configured through any networked computer's Web browser.

The Linksys BEFSR81 router comes with a one-year limited warranty.

The Package [VHS]

Based on 411 reviews Check latest price

Product description

Gene Hackman is a career officer assigned a routine mission well beneath him: deliver a prisoner (Tommy Lee Jones) from Europe to the United States. However, the simple assignment becomes a daring cat-and-mouse game played as the last flames of the Cold War are flickering. This is the first of three films that teamed Jones with director Andrew Davis. In 1989 Jones was a wild card: an actor respected but only popping up in grade B fare. After Davis's Under Siege and The Fugitive, Jones was America's favorite gruff character actor, with an Oscar on his mantel. With a weaker script, Davis still creates the same kind of magic here. Hackman is superb as the officer, an action role similar to others that the nearly 60-year-old unexpectedly excelled at (Bat 21, Narrow Margin) during this period. Tight, tense, and with no letup in the third act, The Package is a good gem for a Saturday night flick. --Doug Thomas
