What Is an Internet Service Provider (ISP)?

• The term “internet service
provider (ISP)” refers to a
company that provides access to
the internet to both personal and
business customers. ISPs make it
possible for their customers to
surf the web, shop online,
conduct business, and connect
with family and friends—all for a
fee.

Is an internet service provider (ISP) the
same as a WiFi provider?
The main difference is that an ISP provides
access to the internet often through cable,
digital subscriber line (DSL), fiber, or satellite
connections. ISPs, such as AT&T or Verizon,
can be wired to a location such as a home or
an office building directly. By contrast, WiFi
providers allow you to access the internet
through a wireless connection. With WiFi
technology, a modem delivers internet
service and a wireless router connects to
the modem.
