Broadband Technology Report

A Parks Associates report from earlier this year found that, in 2023, the average home had 17 connected devices. According to the report, 89% of U.S. internet households have a video streaming service, 66% have a smart TV, 42% have at least one smart home device, 39% have a smart watch, and 31% have a security system. All these devices, connected concurrently, can strain the home network.
