Plenty of broadband options depending on location.

ADSL requires an NTT telephone line.

Cable requires cable (really?)

Optical fibre requires extra holes to be drilled in walls - OK in a house you own, sometimes OK in an apartment you rent. It's more expensive – but worth it.

Dial-up and ISDN - yeah right....

Configuration requires nothing special (except fibre optic - then you'll need to buy at least 500 gigs worth of extra hard disks to store all the crap you'll find yourself downloading
 
if your computer has wireless internet, it could sure help, I've lived in shinosaka and currently, in nara, and as you can see, wireless internet is helping me post. All it takes is someones unsecure connection, and you're good! I just figure it's part of the absurd price I'm paying for rent
