A1 and 2

B1 and 3

C2 and 3 ✓ Correct

D1, 2 and 3

Correct answer: (C) 2 and 3

Explanation

True benefits of broadband are that it can support a wireless connection and that you stay always connected to the internet.

Statement 2 is true because broadband can be shared wirelessly through a Wi-Fi router.

Statement 3 is true because a broadband link stays on continuously without needing to dial in each time.

Statement 1 is false, since broadband actually lets you use the landline phone at the same time as the internet.

That simultaneous use is a key advantage broadband has over the older dial-up connection.

Broadband also offers much higher speeds than dial-up, making streaming and downloads practical.
