how come?

I am by all means not an expert on the subject you can even ask many of the other members on this board, but it seems like i always see that many people are having problems with their DSL speeds, but i really hear no complaints about having cable. it tends to make me think that i am glad that i have cable. though my brother has dsl and have used it quite often, I really think that dsl and cable to me, a nonexpert on all this stuff, is pretty much the same. and those of us who have either cable or DSL are very lucky. Just a thought.

I guess u haven't thoroughly looked around this board b/c people complain about cable all the time too.

They r far from the same. Besides the technology being totally diff, each cable and DSL ISP seems to vary from one locale to the next and in general u pay less and get more w/cable. It all really depends on ur ISP, area and luck.

I agree, esp. if u happen to have one of the better providers.
