Explanation

Among these options, Cable internet provides the fastest real-world speeds. Dial-up is limited to approximately 56 Kbps. ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) tops out at 128 Kbps using both bonded B-channels. WiMAX (802.16) typically delivers 30–40 Mbps in real-world deployments. Cable internet, using DOCSIS technology over coaxial infrastructure, can deliver hundreds of Mbps and even multi-gigabit speeds in modern deployments, making it the clear winner in this comparison.
