ISP stands for Internet Service Provider and provides internet connection, email, and web hosting services. There are several types of internet connections including cable, DSL through phone lines with speeds from 384 kbps to 20 Mbps, and wireless which has speeds similar to DSL. Cable TV companies also offer internet access that is as fast as DSL. Wireless internet uses PC cards, laptop cards or USB devices to connect devices like PCs and laptops to the internet without wires.
