Abstract

Households and individuals in many OECD countries are now accustomed to using broadband (high-speed) connections at home. At present, more than one household out of two has broadband Internet access in three-quarters of OECD countries. Korea has the largest share of households with a broadband connection via a computer or mobile phone (97%). In OECD countries the share ranges from 21% in Mexico to 97% in Korea, for an OECD average of approximately 62%.
