1 edit | Why use bonded DSL under 10mbps? ..I thought the physical restriction of DSL was around 10mbps?
I know Qwest here can do 7mbps/896kbps DSL. I had it with my Cisco 678 back in '05 and it worked quite well. |

| They are using a bonded connection because most lines out there cannot support 10mbps on a single pair due to distance limitations. |

Slightly better loop length reach with bonded DSL (or VDSL) from what I understand.... |

I had it with my Cisco 678 back in '05 and it worked quite well. 8M for ADSL, 24M for ADSL2+ is the limit per line. Bonding uses multiple lines- both in terms of cable pairs and (presumably) DSLAM ports. |

The key here is they use 2 pairs...usually you have 1 pair delivering 3-7Mbps.... times 2 you get 10-14Mbps, hence the word bonded(2 pairs performing as 1). You have to agree with the CTO they're doing their best to provide the best available service. |
