can we have a broadband internet connection with pentium 3 processor?

Answer 1

It depends on the ISP, but overall yes. It varies from one to the other, but I suspect that they're very similar

I worked for Comcast, and requirements are as follows:

Operating Systems: Windows 2000, XP
Processor Speed: 300 MHz or higher (PII)
Memory: 128MB
Hard Drive Space: 150 MB of available space
CD-ROM Drive: Required
USB Port: Recommended
Browser: IE 6.0 SP1

Of course, you will have to check with the cable or DSL company in your area for availability, but your computer is ready for broadband.

Answer 2

Yes, I'm a computer engineer and you can have internet connection for sure on a pentium 3 processor.

Answer 3

u know what, the broadband does not see the processor speed, but he compatibility to support at least Ethernet. I have a Win 98 SE running on a P2 compatible 333 Celeron on 256 megs ram and 4gigs hdd and it works superb.
still some might require that u have atleast Win Me or 2000.

Answer 4

Yes of course! The connection is not dependant on your computer speed but on the availablity of broadband in your area. Even a very early computer can use broadband. Hope that helps, Good luck!

Answer 5

I have a P-I 133Mhz running DOS 6.2, and it acesses my cable modem thru a router. The TCP\IP protocol is very light and as long as your computer can support Ethernet it will be abl to acess the HSI.
