Understanding Your Internet Connection Options
Not all internet connections are the same. NEXIORA ISP CORP breaks down the most common types of internet service in neutral, factual terms so you can make an informed choice for your home or business.
Fiber
Uses light signals over fiber-optic cables; can offer fast, often symmetrical speeds where infrastructure is available.
Cable
Delivered over coaxial cable lines, frequently bundled with other services; availability varies by neighborhood.
DSL
Delivered over existing telephone lines; widely available, though speeds can vary with distance from provider infrastructure.
Satellite
Beamed from orbiting satellites; often available in rural areas where wired options are limited; latency may be higher than wired connections.
Fixed Wireless
Delivered via radio signal from a nearby tower; availability depends on line-of-sight and distance to the transmitter.
