The objectives of this study are to discuss the technologies commonly applied in broadband network and to find out how the function of broadband network could be promoted in Taiwan. This study is an industrial policy research. The comparative analysis was conducted on the secondary data collected from both domestic and foreign sources. As shown by the statistics, the number of broadband subscribers has been increasing rapidly in both domestic and foreign areas. This reflects the rising demand of broadband. The conclusions of the study are as follows: 1. The government policy and the industry support make the number of broadband subscriber increase sharply. 2. ADSL and Cable Modem are the technologies commonly adopted among various countries. 3. The economy factor is the primary consideration in adopting the broadband technologies. 4. The content of network is the key factor to the popularity of broadband network. 5. The popularity of broadband network will promote the electronic commerce. There are five suggestions in this study: 1. To install a full optical-fiber network. 2. To accelerate the network into the Internet Protocol one. 3. To cultivate the software professionals. 4. To rationalize the fee of broadband network. 5. To implement the policy on speeding up the construction of broadband network. Key word: Internet, Broadband network, ADSL, Cable Modem
