always on

Refers to a system that is online and ready to go 24 hours a day. Nothing has to be turned on or dialed up in order to use it. DSL and cable modems are examples of always-on technologies. Although ISDN is a dial-up technology, the process is extremely fast and gives the appearance of an always-on connection.
