A list of few reputed broadband service providers is given
below. Please note that some of these providers may be offering

Speed Internet, AT&T, Yahoo! High Speed Internet, Sonic.net,
and Comcast.

The service providers often given free telephone line (including
handset) and unlimited weekend or night calls. Compare different
providers, and the features offered by them before deciding
your broadband access provider. It is also important to enquire
the speeds available for both download and upload (for businesses)
links in your locality. For some technologies like xDSL, the
distance from the Operator Exchange area to the residence or
office determines the speed available for connecting to the
Internet. If you use the broadband for Video or VOIP purpose,
it is all the more important to check for the speeds before
signing up with a given broadband service provider. Often, download
speeds up to 20 Mbps are offered by the providers.
