Broadband services like ADSL and Cable are very inexpensive, and offer fast Downstream speeds. But reliability has been an issue, especially for any business implementing important applications like Voice over IP. Not being able to connect to the Internet for a few hours might be inconvenient, however loss of telephone service can be disastrous

The Downstream speeds that Broadband services offer, allows multiple users to surf the Net faster than ever before. But if you are Hosting applications (like Terminal Server) for remote users, the slower Upstream speeds may not be enough. And Voice over IP requires far more Upstream speeds than services like ADSL or Cable can deliver.
