A recent report by the Leichtman Research Group looks at overall historic broadband penetration rates. In looking at the results I immediately asked the question if we have topped out with US broadband penetration rates.The study shows that 82% of homes now have a home broadband connection. Another 2% of homes get an internet connection from other sources like dial-up or satellite, meaning that the overall number of households with some kind of home broadband connection is 84%.But compare that to 2012. In that year 76% of homes had a home broadband connection while 7% got broadband in some other...
