How do I tell a broadband connection?

merc5678 asked:
I read somewhere that broadband vaguely means fast internet but how fast is not defined. As such, some ISPs are selling even dailup as broadband only because it’s faster than 56kps.
Now, how do I tell that a service on offer is really broadband?
I’ve seen an ISP advertising broadband connection at 64, 128 and 256kps. this has a flat monthly fee.
comes with a USB modem/ethernet modem and a landline.
alternatively, they have a wireless version that would use a PC card.
i currently have a WIMAX broadband connection that is bundled and billed on usage.
the speed tests have so far shown between 200-800 kbps

Dr. Phil asked:
We recently got wimax internet from bell. when we where looking into buying it they told us that other people using it in our area using the same tower and all would not effect our internet performance. but since we got it, it has been VERY slow during the day, like slower than dial up. but it runs great late at night and early in the morning. do you think we have a broken modem? any quick fixes? any advice would help. thanks!

This tiny company makes, you could say, the thread that stitches the wireless world together. That’s a billion-dollar golden thread, and our tiny company has found how to make it.
The company is quite closely held—the husband-and-wife team that came up with the concept still hold 52% of the shares. We LOVE that: the original creative impulse is still driving sales. The first rainmakers are still dancing.
It gets better. Intel and McCaw have just put $900 million into a tiny WiMAX pioneer, Clearwire. This is more than TWICE what Clearwire was hoping to receive from an IPO later this summer. The signal is clear: wireless Internet access is blisteringly hot, and the access that private investors have to the opportunity are very, very limited.
And when this company announces earnings in the next few weeks, Wall Street will SNAP TO

Rogers Yahoo! Hi-Speed Internet, Bell WiMAX Unplugged, and TELUS High Speed Internet - Which one is lesser of the three evils? Please tell me what you think and give me a brief reason ( please do not say that Rogers, Bell, or Telus pays me salary)
Thank you very much.
