The serial down/up load time might be delayed.
This is not a broad band issue. Bits of data can only be sent on a speed
issue. Broad band allows you to send additional information on top of
the data.
Think about a TV broadcast. The frame is sent as one part of the
transmission and the rest is added into this as additional data. Now
that is braodband

Just increasing the speed of modems etc. still means that the
bandwidth used, it's just used more quickly you oaf

I didn't understand that argument. Can you expand on it please?
