The tables illustrates data from households in Country B with three different types of internet connection and the measure of hours they spent online between 2015 and 2025. The data highlights the differences between the three network connections.
Overall, fiber optic managed to rise sharply in both charts. However, the same cannot be said for the other two variables, since both seems to fluctuate in both charts.
The first table shows the percentage of households with different types of internet connection. During 2015 cable was in the lead, with double the amount of the other two variable. Yet, after ten years the use of cable in households dropped marginally. Similarly, the use of dial-up also plummeted in the span of 10 years with a 15% decrease by 2025. On the other side, the demand for fiber optic only rose significantly and putting them in lead by reaching 55% in 2025.
Moving on, the second table indicates the hours spent online per households per week. In 2015 the network with most hours of online was households with cable, however in the course of 10 years while its usage continuously increase, households online through fiber optic has reached a higher point of average hours spent online per week, with a lead of 5%. And while the aforementioned variables increased, the opposite happened with households with dial-up with a decrease leaving them with only 4% online per household in 2025.In summary, while fiber optic connections saw substantial growth in both ownership and usage, cable and dial-up both declined over the decade.
