Internet Service Types for Tech+
Short answer
Internet service types (Tech+ 2.7) are ways an ISP delivers internet to a home or business. Fiber optic - Uses light through fiber cables. - Generally very fast and reliable. Cable (often RF over coax) - Uses cable TV-style infrastructure. - Performance can vary with local usage. DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) - Uses telephone lines. - Often slower than cable/fiber, but widely available. Wireless / RF - Internet delivered over radio links (fixed wireless is common). Satellite - Works in remote areas. - Higher latency is a common tradeoff.

Internet Service Types
Internet service types (Tech+ 2.7) are ways an ISP delivers internet to a home or business. Fiber optic - Uses light through fiber cables. - Generally very fast and reliable. Cable (often RF over coax) - Uses cable TV-style infrastructure. - Performance can vary with local usage. DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) - Uses telephone lines. - Often slower than cable/fiber, but widely available. Wireless / RF - Internet delivered over radio links (fixed wireless is common). Satellite - Works in remote areas. - Higher latency is a common tradeoff. Cellular - Uses mobile networks (hotspot, phone tethering, cellular routers). Tech+ scenario logic: - Need best overall speed/reliability where available -> fiber.
