Jack needs a high-speed Internet connection at a reasonable price. A friend tells him that the DSL central office is at least 7 km from his place. Under the circumstances, which of the following Internet connectivity modes could prove to be most effective?
  1. Dial-up
  2. DSL
  3. Satellite
  4. Cable
Explanation
Answer: D -Because Jack needs high speed ata reasonable price, and his place is at least 7 km from the central office, Cable Internet is the best option.

Key Takeaway: Dial-up is too slow and Satellite Internet is too expensive. Furthermore, Satellite Internet is slower due to round trip delay issues. Since Jack is 7 km away from the central DSL office, he cannot opt for a DSL connection (maximum allowed is 5 km). Hence, he could go for a cable connection.
