Broadband subscriptions in 2005
Broadband Internet access, often shortened to just broadband, is high-speed Internet access—typically contrasted with dial-up access over a modem.
Dial-up modems are generally only capable of a maximum bitrate of 56 kbit/s (kilobits per second) and require the full use of a telephone line—whereas broadband technologies supply at least double this speed and generally without disrupting telephone use. (Though the opposite word for broadband is not dial up, it is used here for practical understanding purposes only.)
Although various minimum speeds have been used in definitions of broadband, ranging up from 64 kbit/s up to 1.0 Mbit/s, the 2006 OECD report [1] is typical in counting only download speeds equal to or faster than 256 kbit/s as broadband, and the US FCC currently defines broadband as anything above 768 kbit/s [2] [3]
Speeds are defined in terms of maximum download because several common consumer broadband technologies such as ADSL are "asymmetric"—supporting much slower maximum upload speeds than download.
"Broadband penetration" is now treated as a key economic indicator.[4][5]
Broadband is often called high-speed Internet, because it usually has a high rate of data transmission. In general, any connection to the customer of 256 kbit/s (0.256 Mbit/s) or more is considered broadband Internet. The International Telecommunication Union Standardization Sector (ITU-T) recommendation I.113 has defined broadband as a transmission capacity that is faster than primary rate ISDN, at 1.5 to 2 Mbit/s. The FCC definition of broadband is 200 kbit/s (0.2 Mbit/s) in one direction, and advanced broadband is at least 200 kbit/s in both directions. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has defined broadband as 256 kbit/s in at least one direction and this bit rate is the most common baseline that is marketed as "broadband" around the world. There is no specific bitrate defined by the industry, however, and "broadband" can mean lower-bitrate transmission methods. Some Internet Service Providers (ISPs) use this to their advantage in marketing lower-bitrate connections as broadband.
In practice, the advertised bandwidth is not always reliably available to the customer; ISPs often allow a greater number of subscribers than their backbone connection can handle, under the assumption that most users will not be using their full connection capacity very frequently. This aggregation strategy works more often than not, so users can typically burst to their full bandwidth most of the time; however, peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing systems, often requiring extended durations of high bandwidth, stress these assumptions, and can cause major problems for ISPs who have excessively overbooked their capacity. For more on this topic, see traffic shaping. As takeup for these introductory products increases, telcos are starting to offer higher bit rate services. For existing connections, this most of the time simply involves reconfiguring the existing equipment at each end of the connection.
As the bandwidth delivered to end users increases, the market expects that video on demand services streamed over the Internet will become more popular, though at the present time such services generally require specialized networks. The data rates on most broadband services still do not suffice to provide good quality video, as MPEG-2 video requires about 6 Mbit/s for good results. Adequate video for some purposes becomes possible at lower data rates, with rates of 768 kbit/s and 384 kbit/s used for some video conferencing applications, and rates as low as 100 kbit/s used for videophones using H.264/MPEG-4 AVC. The MPEG-4 format delivers high-quality video at 2 Mbit/s, at the high end of cable modem and ADSL performance.
Increased bandwidth has already made an impact on newsgroups: postings to groups such as alt.binaries.* have grown from JPEG files to entire CD and DVD images. According to NTL, the level of traffic on their network increased from a daily inbound news feed of 150 gigabytes of data per day and 1 terabyte of data out each day in 2001 to 500 gigabytes of data inbound and over 4 terabytes out each day in 2002.[citation needed]
Technology

The standard broadband technologies in most areas are DSL and cable modems. Newer technologies in use include VDSL and pushing optical fiber connections closer to the subscriber in both telephone and cable plants. Fiber-optic communication, while only recently being used in fiber to the premises and fiber to the curb schemes, has played a crucial role in enabling Broadband Internet access by making transmission of information over larger distances much more cost-effective than copper wire technology. In a few areas not served by cable or ADSL, community organizations have begun to install Wi-Fi networks, and in some cities and towns local governments are installing municipal Wi-Fi networks. As of 2006, high speed mobile Internet access has become available at the consumer level in some countries, using the HSDPA and EV-DO technologies. The newest technology being deployed for mobile and stationary broadband access is WiMAX

IndosatM2

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

IndosatM2 provides Internet, multimedia and IP-based products and services to customers in the corporate, small and medium enterprise (SME), and the retail market segments in Indonesia, utilizing a wide array of local access nodes, from dedicated cable and wireless access to standard dial-up, VSAT-IP, and the latest in 3.5G broadband connections. IM2 also offers value-added services including web hosting and collocation.

IndosatM2 is fully subsidiary company of PT. Indosat. IM2 started in full operation since 2000 and since then, IM2 has become the largest ISP provider in Indonesia with its connection to the international Internet backbone

Consumer Solutions

In 2006, IndosatM2 began expanding its service by providing 3.5G wireless broadband internet in Indonesia. IndosatM2 with its tagline Broadband Anywhere continuously provides retail customers with high quality internet service. This was shown by increasing number of IndosatM2 hotspot from 66 locations in 2005 to 127 locations with 510 Access Points in 17 Indonesian cities in 2006. A prepaid internet access to customer was also introduced in 2006 that enabled customer to enjoy high-quality Wi-Fi connection at these IndosatM2 hotspots.

In 2007, IndosatM2 introduced the 3.5G mobile wireless broadband internet. The new service allowed customer to access broadband internet via wireless modem. This means, the IndosatM2 promise of “Broadband Anywhere” was being realized one step further. This new service utilize the 3G cellular telecommunication protocol that allowed for much higher data transfer rate and bandwidth capacity compared with other technologies. Using the HSDPA feature, IndosatM2 users can have speed up to 3.6 Mbit/s while using the datacard or USB wireless modems.

Early in 2008, a new alternative way of using the 3.5G wireless broadband internet was launch. A prepaid 3.5G internet service, dubbed “BROOM” package, is one of the highly anticipated services by the customers. Customers can purchase the same internet service from IndosatM2 with affordable price with refillable system. With only little more than USD 1 dollar, a subscriber can access high-speed wireless broadband internet service, practically from anywhere in Indonesia. A single user ID service is also one of the features introduced by IndosatM2. The single user ID can be used in non free Wi-Fi hotspots provided by IndosatM2 partners and dial-up connection and also a top-up service using SMS service is another feature provided by IndosatM2. This numerous high anticipated service from IndosatM2, contributed to the giant leap in the number of IndosatM2 subscribers. Starting from mere hundreds to more than 30,000 registered subscribers from 2006 to end of 2007 respectively. The growth is rapidly increasing ever since. Now, IndosatM2 serving more than 50,000 retail and corporate subscribers

Business Solutions

The flow of information can be linked to the lifeblood of modern businesses and particularly for large corporations. Nowadays, corporate users have come to depend on IP-based telecommunications services, which offer many advantages over other forms of data communication technologies. To accommodate these corporate users needs, IndosatM2 provides an array of products and services, ranging from IndosatNet Dedicated Internet and IM2 Link IP-VPN MPLS to web-hosting and colocation services In 2006, IndosatM2 expanded its Fiber Optic and Hybrid Fiber Coaxial networks especially in business districts in Jakarta and Surabaya. Another mainstay in IndosatM2 products lineup for the corporate segment is IM2 Link, an IP-based Virtual Private Network utilizing the Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) technology, which allowed customers to link widely dispersed locations in a single communication network, securely and cost-effectively. Also in 2006, IndosatM2 expanded its MPLS node coverage for IM2 Link from 170 to 217 nodes. This numbers grew to 369 in 2007 and still growing towards this 2008.

Dial-up internet access

2008-07-08T21:24:00.004+07:00

Dial-up Internet Access is a form of Internet access via telephone line.^[1] The client uses a modem connected to a computer and a telephone line to dial into an Internet service provider's (ISP) node to establish a modem-to-modem link, which is then routed to the Internet.^{[citation needed]}

Availability

Dial-up connection of phones requires no additional infrastructure other than the telephone network. As telephone points are available throughout the world, dial-up remains useful to travelers. Dial-up is usually the only choice available for most rural or remote areas where getting a broadband connection is not likely due to low population and demand. Sometimes dial-up access may also be an alternative to people who have limited budgets as it is offered for free by some, though broadband is now increasingly available at lower prices in countries such as the United States, Canada, Ireland, Australia, and the United Kingdom due to market competition.

Dial-up requires time to establish a telephone connection (several seconds, depending on the location) and perform handshaking before data transfers can take place. In locales with telephone connection charges, each connection incurs an incremental cost. If calls are time-charged, the duration of the connection incurs costs.

Dial-up access is a transient connection, because either the user or the ISP terminates the connection. Internet service providers will often set a limit on connection durations to prevent hogging of access, and will disconnect the user — requiring reconnection and the costs and delays associated with it.

A 2008 Pew Internet and American Life Project study states that that only 10 percent of American adults still use dial-up internet. Reasons for retaining dial-up access span from lack of infrastructure to high broadband prices. ^[2]

[edit] Performance

Modern dial-up modems typically have a maximum theoretical speed of 56 kbit/s (using the V.90 or V.92 protocol), although in most cases 40-50 kbit/s is the norm. Factors such as phone line noise as well as the quality of the modem itself play a large part in determining connection speeds. Some connections may be as low as 20 kbit/s in extremely noisy environments, such as in a hotel room where the phone line is shared with many, many extensions.

Dial-up connections usually have latency that can be as high as 400 ms or even more, which can make online gaming or video conferencing difficult, if not impossible. First person shooter style games are the most sensitive to latency, making playing them impractical on dial-up, however some games such as Star Wars: Galaxies, The Sims Online, Warcraft 3, Guild Wars, Unreal Tournament, and Audition are capable of running on 56k dial-up.

[edit] Using compression to exceed 56k

Today's V.42, V.42bis and V.44 standards allow the modem to transmit data faster than its basic rate would imply. For instance, a 53.3 kbit/s connection with V.44 can transmit up to 53.3*6 == 320 kbit/s using pure text. One problem is that the compression tends to get better and worse over time due to noise on the line, or due to the transfer of already-compressed files (ZIP files, JPEG images, MP3 audio, MPEG video). ^[3] At some points the modem will be sending compressed files at approximately 50 kbit/s, uncompressed files at 160 kbit/s, and pure text at 320 kbit/s, or any value in between. ^[4] In such situations a small amount of memory in the modem, a buffer, is used to hold the data while it is being compressed and sent across the phone line, but in order to prevent overflow of the buffer, it sometimes becomes necessary to tell the computer to pause the datastream. This is accomplished through hardware flow control using extra pins on the modem–computer connection. The computer is then set to supply the modem at some higher rate, such as 320 kbit/s, and the modem will tell the computer when to start or stop sending data.

[edit] Compression by the ISP

As telephone-based 56k modems began losing popularity, some Internet Service Providers such as Netzero and Juno started using pre-compression to increase the throughput & maintain their customer base. As an example, the Earthlink ISP uses a compression program that squeezes images, text, and other objects at the server, just prior to sending them across the phone line. The server-side compression operates much more efficiently than the "on-the-fly" compression of V.44-enabled modems. Typically website text is compacted to 5% thus increasing effective throughput to approximately 1000 kbit/s, and images are lossy-compressed to 15-20% increasing throughput to ~350 kbit/s.

The drawback of this approach is a loss in quality, where the graphics acquire more compression artifacts taking-on a blurry appearance, however the speed is dramatically improved and the user can manually choose to view the uncompressed images at any time. The ISPs employing this approach advertise it as "DSL speeds over regular phone lines" or simply "high speed dialup".

[edit] Replacement by broadband

Broadband Internet access (cable and DSL) has been replacing dial-up access in many parts of the world. Broadband connections typically offer speeds 700 kbit/s or higher for approximately the same price as dialup. An increasing amount of Internet content such as streaming media will not work at dialup speeds.

However, many areas still remain without high speed Internet despite the eagerness of potential customers. This can be attributed to population, location, or sometimes ISPs' lack of interest due to little chance of profitability and high costs to build the required infrastructure. Some Dialup ISPs have responded to the increased competition by lowering their rates to as low as $5 a month making dialup an attractive option for those who merely want email access or basic web browsing.

ADSL CONECTIONS

ADSL Theory

This entry attempts to explain how ADSL works, what all the fancy acronyms mean and may hopefully answer a few peoples questions on a few things.

I'm trying to make it so the average tech-savvy person can understand, ma and pa may not get everything here but they're unlikely to be as concerned about that song and dance that goes on in the background.

There's probably a few mistakes in here, edit away. I've also written this to my understanding of ADSL, from experience it tends to hold up to most applications of ADSL but I know I run into things every now and then that make me revise my understanding. This isn't supposed to be gospel or a reference but more an interpretation of what's going on.

If you've read everything and something doesn't make sense or you think something is missing from this then please drop me a WHIM and I'll see if I can add something. Don't WHIM me for specific questions, only related to the idea of DSL theory stuff.

Basics

Human hearing covers about 20kHz; voice range is variable but 95% of verbal communication happens in a relatively limited band of 300-4000Hz. The telephone networks of the world use 0-4000Hz, that covers human speech frequencies and signaling with in the phone network. Your telephone line is a pair of solid copper lines which has a frequency range available, basically only limited by technology and attenuation.

ADSL leaves some safety space between itself and other common telephone network protocols and then uses the available frequency bandwidth. This translates to 28kHz to 1.1MHz for ADSL1/2 and 28kHz to 2.2MHz for ADSL2+.

Speeds

OK, the best way to pull together the whole attenuation and noise thing is to have a look at the negotiated speed. Let's assume a normal ADSLv1 connection running Annex A.
o 8198/1024 - high down, high up; low attenuation (short line), low noise.
o 4096/1024 - mid down, high up; attenuated (longer line), low noise (full speed upstream).
o 4096/512 - mid down, mid up; likely low attenuation , high noise levels (from the low upstream speed)
o 2048/512 - low down, mid up; attenuated (lower down speed), high noise levels (low up speed).

Remember, we're talking about line attenuation and not signal attenuation here.

Crosstalk

This isn't really part of what happens to your connection, it's more to do with design issues faced but it's interesting to the overall picture of things and explains why certain annexes of ADSL are problematic.

You remember in the noise section we were talking about power flowing down a wire creating an EMP and an EMP passing over a wire creates a signal on that wire.

Now when the telephone lines are inside the exchange (and in the ground for that matter) they are tightly bundled together. As an ADSL signal travels down line A then an EMP is created and a signal is generated in the adjacent line B, that's crosstalk or XT. Crosstalk will only occur close to the signal source, whilst the signal is strong, once it's travelled a 100m or so it's lost the power to create a decent EMP.

There are two types of crosstalk dependant on where the XT signal is heard. A DSLAM port talks and the XT signal gets heard by another DSLAM port it's called Near End Crosstalk or NEXT. A DSLAM port talks and the XT signal gets heard by another lines DSL modem it's called Far End Crosstalk or FEXT.

NEXT happens all the time inside the exchanges, it doesn't matter. All the common ADSL annexes listen on 28kHz-138kHz and talk on 138kHz-1.1/2.2MHz, a signal NEXT's at say 432kHz, the port that it crosstalk's to isn't listening to that frequency band.

FEXT is a lot less common and a lot harder to identify. FEXT will only occur on very short lines (less than 250m), the XT signal that is generated is a lot less powerful than the original and it's generally attenuated out before it reaches the DSL modem. In the very rare cases it does get heard by the DSL modem it generally appears as background noise. The only real time it causes issues is if you sync up whilst an adjacent line is down, the adjacent line comes up and the signal is XT'ed and causes an increase in line noise resulting in a drop.

E-commerce

2008-07-06T17:58:00.004+07:00

Electronic commerce, commonly known as e-commerce or eCommerce, consists of the buying and selling of products or services over electronic systems such as the Internet and other computer networks. The amount of trade conducted electronically has grown extraordinarily since the spread of the Internet. A wide variety of commerce is conducted in this way, spurring and drawing on innovations in electronic funds transfer, supply chain management, Internet marketing, online transaction processing, electronic data interchange (EDI), inventory management systems, and automated data collection systems. Modern electronic commerce typically uses the World Wide Web at least at some point in the transaction's lifecycle, although it can encompass a wider range of technologies such as e-mail as well.

A large percentage of electronic commerce is conducted entirely electronically for virtual items such as access to premium content on a website, but most electronic commerce involves the transportation of physical items in some way. Online retailers are sometimes known as e-tailers and online retail is sometimes known as e-tail. Almost all big retailers have electronic commerce presence on the World Wide Web.

Electronic commerce that is conducted between businesses is referred to as Business-to-business or B2B. B2B can be open to all interested parties (e.g. commodity exchange) or limited to specific, pre-qualified participants (private electronic market).

Electronic commerce is generally considered to be the sales aspect of e-business. It also consists of the exchange of data to facilitate the financing and payment aspects of the business transactions.

Early development

The meaning of electronic commerce has changed over the last 30 years. Originally, electronic commerce meant the facilitation of commercial transactions electronically, using technology such as Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) and Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT). These were both introduced in the late 1970s, allowing businesses to send commercial documents like purchase orders or invoices electronically. The growth and acceptance of credit cards, automated teller machines (ATM) and telephone banking in the 1980s were also forms of electronic commerce. From the 1990s onwards, electronic commerce would additionally include enterprise resource planning systems (ERP), data mining and data warehousing.

Perhaps it is introduced from the Telephone Exchange Office, or maybe not.The earliest example of many-to-many electronic commerce in physical goods was the Boston Computer Exchange, a marketplace for used computers launched in 1982. The first online information marketplace, including online consulting, was likely the American Information Exchange, another pre-Internet online system introduced in 1991.

Business applications

Some common applications related to electronic commerce are:

E-mail and messaging
Documents, spreadsheets, database
Accounting and finance systems
Orders and shipment information
Enterprise and client information reporting
Domestic and international payment systems
Newsgroup
On-line Shopping
Messaging
Conferencing

Government regulations

In the United States, some electronic commerce activities are regulated by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). These activities include the use of commercial e-mails, online advertising and consumer privacy. The CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 establishes national standards for direct marketing over e-mail. The Federal Trade Commission Act regulates all forms of advertising, including online advertising, and states that advertising must be truthful and non-deceptive.^[4] Using its authority under Section 5 of the FTC Act, which prohibits unfair or deceptive practices, the FTC has brought a number of cases to enforce the promises in corporate privacy statements, including promises about the security of consumers’ personal information.^[5] As result, any corporate privacy policy related to e-commerce activity may be subject to enforcement by the FTC.

Forms

Contemporary electronic commerce involves everything from ordering "digital" content for immediate online consumption, to ordering conventional goods and services, to "meta" services to facilitate other types of electronic commerce.

On the consumer level, electronic commerce is mostly conducted on the World Wide Web. An individual can go online to purchase anything from books, grocery to expensive items like real estate. Another example will be online banking like online bill payments, buying stocks, transferring funds from one account to another, and initiating wire payment to another country. All these activities can be done with a few keystrokes on the keyboard.

On the institutional level, big corporations and financial institutions use the internet to exchange financial data to facilitate domestic and international business. Data integrity and security are very hot and pressing issues for electronic commerce these days.

Internet marketing

Also referred to as online marketing, Internet advertising, eMarketing (or e-Marketing), is the marketing of products or services over the Internet. When applied to the subset of website-based advertisement placements, Internet marketing is commonly referred to as Web advertising (Webvertising) and/or Web marketing. The Internet has brought many unique benefits to marketing, one of which being lower costs for the distribution of information and media to a global audience. The interactive nature of Internet marketing, both in terms of providing instant response and eliciting response, is a unique quality of the medium. E-marketing is sometimes considered to have a broader scope since it refers to digital media such as web, e-mail and wireless media, but also includes management of digital customer data and electronic customer relationship management systems (E-CRM systems).

This sample for your Internet Marketing Program

Affiliate marketing

As a web-based marketing practice in which a business rewards one or more affiliates for each visitor or customer brought about by the affiliate's marketing efforts.

Affiliate marketing is also the name of the industry where a number of different types of companies and individuals are performing this form of internet marketing, including affiliate networks, affiliate management companies and in-house affiliate managers, specialized 3rd party vendors, and various types of affiliates/publishers who promote the products and services of their partners.

Affiliate marketing overlaps with other internet marketing methods to some degree, because affiliates often use regular advertising methods. Those methods include organic search engine optimization, paid search engine marketing, email marketing and in some sense display advertising. On the other hand, affiliates sometimes use less orthodox techniques like publishing reviews of products or services offered by a partner.

Affiliate marketing — using one site to drive traffic to another — is a form of online marketing, which is frequently overlooked by advertisers. While search engines, e-mail and RSS capture much of the attention of online retailers, affiliate marketing carries a much lower profile. Still, affiliates continue to play a significant role in e-retailers'

Customer relationship management (CRM)

Is a multifaceted process, mediated by a set of information technologies, that focuses on creating two-way exchanges with customers so that firms have an intimate knowledge of their needs, wants, and buying patterns. In this way, CRM is intended to help companies understand, as well as anticipate, the needs of current and potential customers. Functions that support this business purpose include sales, marketing, customer service, training, professional development, performance management, human resource development, and compensation. Many CRM initiatives have failed because implementation was limited to software installation without alignment to a customer-centric strategy.

Email marketing

Is a form of direct marketing which uses electronic mail as a means of communicating commercial or fundraising messages to an audience. In its broadest sense, every email sent to a potential or current customer could be considered email marketing. However, the term is usually used to refer to:

Sending emails with the purpose of enhancing the relationship of a merchant with its current or old customers and to encourage customer loyalty and repeat business.
Sending emails with the purpose of acquiring new customers or convincing old customers to buy something immediately.
Adding advertisements in emails sent by other companies to their customers.
Emails that are being sent on the Internet (Email did and does exist outside the Internet, Network Email, FIDO etc.)

Researchers estimate that US firms alone spent $400 million on email marketing in 2006

In-text advertising

Is a form of contextual advertising where specific words within the text of a webpage are associated with advertising content.

Description

Although contextual advertising in general refers to the inclusion of advertisements adjacent to relevant online context (e.g., Google AdSense), in-text advertising places hyperlinks directly into the text of the webpage. Most in-text advertising has the following characteristics:

The text associated with an advertisement is identified by a double-underline to differentiate it from regular hyperlinks.
An in-page window containing advertising content appears when the cursor is positioned over the corresponding text.

Blog marketing

Is the term used to describe internet marketing via web blogs. These blogs differ from corporate websites because they feature daily or weekly posts, often around a single topic. Typically, corporations use blogs to create a dialogs with customers and explain features of their products and services.

Blog Marketing has evolved since the start of Blogger. There has been various Blog Softwares on the Web today which are free, the most popular among them being Wordpress and Blogger. Blogs are Basic websites which are updated Regularly. They act as a Private news interface for any Company / Website. With regular update being handled by the company and The need for Fresh content on the web makes the Blogs a preferred destination for Resources. Blogs have been focussed as a primary platform for Marketing since the early 2006.
