In summary, Albany's broadband Internet infrastructure follows a common pattern in Louisiana cities and towns: widespread access to cable and DSL Internet service, with the caveat that most houses or apartments are limited to one provider for subscribing to either type of service. The cable/DSL pattern comes from the fact that most Internet outfits have their roots as cable television and phone corporations. So, they already own these pre-existing copper networks for delivering broadband Internet service.
