    Afaik broadband is defined as 2Mbit/s and up.
    So I still have no broadband connection - only 768kbit/s.
    Otherwise I don't know if my old ISDN with 2 connections (=128kbit/s) is allowed here.

    best regards

    For me broadband is anything with a speed higher than 56Kbit that doesn't use your phone line.

    From Wikipedia:
    Although various minimum bandwidths have been used in definitions of broadband, ranging up from 64 kbit/s up to 2.0 Mbit/s[1], the 2006 OECD report[2] is typical by defining broadband as having download data transfer rates equal to or faster than 256 kbit/s, while the United States (US) Federal Communications Commission (FCC) as of 2009, defines "Basic Broadband" as data transmission speeds exceeding 768 kilobits per second (Kbps),
    Sorry for the long quote

    On topic: mine was 356kbps, unlimited usage. It's a strange number, that was 7 years ago
