Business Internet Access

Internet access for business is different from Internet access for home use. When companies offer home Internet access, they expect that in most cases just one or two computers will be connected to the service and only a tiny amount of bandwidth will be consumed. Businesses on the other hand typically boast intranets with dozens (or hundreds or even thousands) of computers hooked up to them and are large consumers of bandwidth. Businesses also rely on their ISP services more (on the average) and potentially lose money if their connection goes down. ISPs thus treat business customers more seriously, and they tend to likewise charge significantly more for business accounts.
