“…For instance, Srinuan, Srinuan and Bohlin (2012) swedish people with a low income have a higher probability of using mobile broadband rather than …xed (…ber or DSL), whereas this probability is less high in rural areas. A similar result is found for the Austrian market: people living in Vienna are more likely to subscribe to a mobile broadband o¤er.…”

“…However, in areas that have several types of broadband access technologies, all of them become close substitutes (Cardona et al 2009). Srinuan et al (2012) and Oguz et al (2015) found that mobile broadband and fixed broadband are also substitutes for each other.…”

This paper examines the relationship between asymmetric digital subscriber line (broadband) and dial-up (narrowband) Internet subscribers in Nepal. While the number of broadband subscribers is increasing, the number of narrowband subscribers has been decreasing over the last couple of years. As expected, broadband subscribers ''Granger cause'' narrowband subscribers to decline. This suggests that digital subscriber lines are a superior good that is a substitute and replace dial-up services. This relationship should be stable in the short-run. The public sector incumbent Nepal Telecom provides both digital subscriber lines and dial-up access while commercial Internet Service Providers supply dial-up services. Hence, a large proportion of the revenue of the commercial providers is likely to be eroded compared to the incumbent. Given this context and to ensure that there is free and fair competition to support rapid growth in the Internet sector, the Government of Nepal needs to address important regulatory and policy issues related to this narrowband-broadband transition.Keywords Narrowband Á Broadband Á Internet Á Dial-up Á Asymmetric digital subscriber line Á Nepal JEL Classification L86 Á L96 Á O18 Á C32

“…Srinuan et al (2012a) use a binomial logit regression model and find that in Thailand the age, region of residence and availability of fixed telephony are significant drivers of mobile internet access. Finally, Srinuan et al (2012b) consider a panel dataset of Finnish households in 2009, and use a multinomial logit model to examine which household characteristics explain Internet adoption.…”

This paper analyzes mobile broadband plan prices from 37 countries between 2011 and 2014. Mobile network operators typically commercialize usage-based plans that include an access fee, a usage allowance (number of GB included in the tariff plan), and a penalty system should consumers exceed the contracted allowance. Our empirical model shows that the prices of these plans are lower than those of unlimited contracts, and that they depend on the type of penalty that is used. The prices also reflect service characteristics, including the technology provided, the download speed, and telephone call allowances. Plans that bundle mobile broadband plans with smartphone devices have longer contract duration and may be more expensive than plans that only include a SIM card. Specifically, broadband service plans are priced higher when they include an iPhone or a Samsung smartphone. The paper also discusses the impact of market structure and entry regulation on prices.
