Explanation

A SOHO (Small Office/Home Office) needs fast, secure, and cost-effective internet. OC3 and DS3 are enterprise-grade leased lines costing thousands of dollars per month - far too expensive for a SOHO. Dial-up is too slow (max 56 Kbps) and does not meet the 'fast' requirement. A cable modem (Choice C) provides broadband speeds at a low monthly cost, and pairing it with a dedicated firewall delivers strong security. A DSL router with built-in firewall capabilities (Choice E) similarly provides broadband access with integrated security at consumer pricing. Both C and E satisfy all three requirements: speed (broadband), security (firewall), and cost-effectiveness (consumer-grade pricing).
