Broadband is necessary for all the countries. We analyze the case of Greece in collaboration with Athanasia Karastogianni.Broadband was and still is, since the moment of its appearance, the most common
form of accessing the internet due to the high speeds it can provide to its
users. Before broadband there was the dial-up. The dial-up still exists and is
a very cheap solution but of course it cannot be compared with the faster
broadband.
From 1990 to 2003
Greece was relying to PSTN/ISDN modem dial-up. Of course this kind of connection was innovatory at the time but it
was extremely slow and eliminated the user from other abilities, like the
telephone.
