AOL Broadband

AOL Broadband Wireless & Evening and Weekends is the new entry-level deal from AOL Broadband (previously AOL Silver). All AOL customers receive a free wireless router, allowing you to set up a space efficiant network around the home without the hassle of wires. As well as speeds of up to 8Mbps, AOL Broadband Wireless & Evening and Weekends customers can enjoy a generous download cap of 10GB per month.

AOL subscribers to this package currently get the AOL Talk Evening & Weekends phone package for FREE which provides evening and weekend calls at no cost. AOL Broadband comes with a whole range of its own inclusive security programs; anti-virus, pop-up blockers, spam filters and parental controls. A powerful McAfee Firewall is also included as standard.

The 10GB download cap at a connection speed of 8Mbps may feel a bit limiting for heavy-duty users, who are recommended to try the AOL Platinum packages instead. Still, 10GB is more than enough for people's general web browsing needs, such as emailing, shopping, instant messaging etc.
