43. What company supplies your internet service and what technology is your service on?

The common technologies are Cable Modem (the most common being Xfinity by Comcast), DSL (still around, but becoming less common), T1 (typically used by businesses), Fiber Optic (the most well known being FIOS from Verizon).

The technology that a person uses is important when a person is doing activity on sites that have tiered applications that do functions such as verify existing and new users, perform list based call-up and displays (the user creates a set of choices via answering questions or selecting choices from a list, then a application use the user's list to select information for display that meets the user's selection criteria), and allows a user to examine one or more displays for more detail (for example, a person may want to know whether a particular insurance plan offers Adult Dental as part of the plan). Every path that a user takes can present issues where the user's ISP technology doesn't sync well with the site's technology, that problem can cause freeze-up at any level and prevent a person affected by the freeze-up from accessing more functions on the site.
