Re: I wish... said by Jerm:I dunno. With VDSL2 allowing a claimed 100mbps @ 3500ft over copper and AT&T limiting their FTTH to what 6mbps - I think I don't care how the bandwidth gets to me - just get it to me! I'm at 12000 ft from the CO. Even with VDSL, ADSL2, DSL2+ or all new DSL type technologies combined, I will only be able to get about 3 Mbps. If am extremely lucky, I may get away with a 6 Mbps subscription which may connect at around 5 Mbps.
Cable gives me 10 down, 1 up.
Not a difficult choice. I don't care about VDSL or DSL2+ as they are all so very nice for the first 5000 ft, but if you are over that..... goodluck getting any type of speed from your phone company.
As long as no one strings fiber to my house, I am pretty sure I will stick with cable.
