    • ISDN

    • MODEM

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. DSL
    A. MODEM
    Explanation
    DSL and modem are the correct answers because both options provide an "always on" internet service. DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) is a high-speed internet connection that is always available as long as the DSL modem is connected. Similarly, a modem provides an "always on" internet connection by establishing a constant connection to the internet service provider. On the other hand, AOL and ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) are not "always on" options as they require dial-up connections and may not provide a continuous internet connection.
