Since the subject of just what "broadband" internet access means came up, I thought that the article from Wikipedia about this topic might be helpful. The information presented there does at least indicate that everyone agrees on a couple of points:

dial-up is not broadband

broadband speeds must equal or exceed 200Kbits/Sec (most believe a minimum of 768)

You should be aware too that wireless solutions are much more likely to experience outages in inclement weather (e.g. heavy rain, fog, snow/sleet) and that cable is shared bandwidth and during periods of peak usage can be drastically lower than advertised speeds.

Who is your ISP? Have you looked into broadband? If you do consider a change, talk to others in your area first before making a decision.

Personally I would rather do without internet than go back to dial-up. I would definitely cut expenses somewhere else to have it.
