A new broadband usage survey released by the Federal Communications Commission says that, as of June 30, 2010, 60 percent of high speed Internet connections in the United States were slower than 4Mbps—that's the download speed identified by the agency as the "minimum bandwidth generally required to accommodate today’s uses: high-quality voice, data, graphics, and video."

On the other hand, wireless connections shot up by 27 percent, from 56 to 71 million.
