If we also include those that connected via mobile broadband, the percentage rises to 99.4%.

XDSL is the most widely-used Internet access technology by companies. Over 97% of the companies access to the Internet using this technology. Internet access in companies by means of other type of connections continued to increase, rising from 12.3% in 2010 to 13.3% in January 2011, but was still very far from XDSL technology.
