Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - What is the deal with DSL?
Posted: 8/31/2004 2:54:19 PM EDT
So what is the deal with DSL? I currently have cable, but am moving temporarily while my home is being built (8 mo) and right now I have a throttled down cable connection limited to like 1mps, but I can get a DSL cheaper which will give me 5mps. So do I need to get anything else other than a dongle? Can I still use my same modem? What is all involved in the switch?

You cant use the same modem.  If you can get a faster connection for a lower price then go for it.  Both of them offer an always on connection and fast downloads.

The DSL package will come with it's own modem. You'll need to add little filter dongles to every non-computer phone in the building to block the DSL signal from the telephones, fax machines (does anyone still use those old things!) and your alarm system. I forgot about that last one - many alarm systems have a connection to the telephone that dials a centeral office.
