Robert;

Don't fix it if it's not broken.
Also, Verizon really bandwidth limits their DSL, especially upstream.
Taka is right, your POTS line qualitiy is a big technical factor.

IF your cable-neighborhood is ligthly loaded, it will appear a lot faster.

have lots of headaches.

Hi Y'all,

Sorry for the lack of AC

Verizon has finally gotten around to making DSL available in my area. I
have been using a cable modem which has been (usually) quite
satisfactory. Does anyone have experience with both systems and have a
recommendation as to which is more satisfactory? I realize that there
is a loading factor speed penalty when many users are on-line with the
cable which does not happen with DSL. So far, that has not been a
significant problem - yet. The DSL is about $5/month less expensive
than the cable modem but that is not a large factor in the decision.
