| Getting TV from the telco is just like getting DSL The TV from the telco is coming to your threw the land line just like DSL is. With DSL precisely how much benefit you see will greatly depend on how far you are from the central office of the company providing the ADSL service. ADSL is a distance-sensitive technology: As the connection's length increases, the signal quality decreases and the connection speed goes down. The limit for ADSL service is 18,000 feet (5,460 meters), though for speed and quality of service reasons many ADSL providers place a lower limit on the distances for the service. At the extremes of the distance limits, ADSL customers may see speeds far below the promised maximums, while customers nearer the central office have faster connections and may see extremely high speeds in the future. ADSL technology can provide maximum downstream (Internet to customer) speeds of up to 8 megabits per second (Mbps) at a distance of about 6,000 feet (1,820 meters), and upstream speeds of up to 640 kilobits per second (Kbps). In practice, the best speeds widely offered today are 1.5 Mbps downstream, with upstream speeds varying between 64 and 640 Kbps. Were as cable TV its performance doesn't depend on distance from the central cable office. A digital CATV system is designed to provide digital signals at a particular quality to customer households. So if your still thinking off getting TV from the telco thing again and with the cable companys TV. |

| Any transmission standard is distance sensitive. DSL is distance limited
A person 2 ft from a DSLAM and one 15,000ft from it are going to see the same surfing quality if the line is capped at about 2 megs.
Digital cable is also limited but the cable companies have their nodes closer to the end user. The drawback to their tech is they have shared access across from the end user to the node. |

What in the HELL are u talking about?
First of all, FiOS was being discussed .. this is NOT DSL and the TV is not coming "threw the landline" LOL, get a clue.
Secondly, if youre talking about IPTV, and I dont think you were, youre still clueless, this will be sent over vdsl or adsl+ circuts which are MUCH faster than todays standard dsl. |
