UK - the slow growth of the Internet

Internet connectivity

Nearly nineteen out of twenty connections to the Internet are via broadband.

In September 2008, broadband connections accounted for 94.1 per cent of all Internet connections, up from 92.8 per cent in June 2008. This is according to the latest update from the survey of Internet Service Providers (ISPs). Despite continuing increases in broadband connections, an 18.6 per cent decrease in dial-up resulted in a 0.4 per cent fall in the index of all connections between June and September 2008, to 118.4.
