Forrester Research predicts that 16 million U.S. households will be using high-speed access by then. And these connections will change the way consumers use the Internet and create new opportunities for service and content providers, according to Forrester.

"Once consumers get a taste of high-speed Internet access at home, they'll never go back to dial-up," said Christopher Mines, director of Forrester's People & Technology Strategies service and author of the report, "Broadband Hits Home," in a statement.

Cable companies will be the leading provider of residential broadband services, capturing more than 80 percent of the market by 2002, Forrester predicts. Cable data services are poised for significant growth over the next 18 months, surging from 350,000 subscribers in mid-1998 to more than 2 million by the end of 1999.
