| Misleading Press But Comcast has faced criticism from broadband analysts who say its network is overloaded and slows down during peak hours. Because AT&T and Sonic.net use copper wires -- not coaxial cable -- they don't experience the same type of congestion.
that quote from »www.pressdemocrat.com/article/20···10190340 is misleading. ALL Internet faces congestion just not cable.
But what to except from a DSL issued news story. DSL Providers only tell half the truth which is generally a lie to begin with. |

ALL Internet faces congestion just not cable. But what to except from a DSL issued news story. DSL Providers only tell half the truth which is generally a lie to begin with. Congestion has absolutely nothing to do with the medium delivering a broadband connection.
That said, the congestion does tend to occur in different places (namely upstream vs downstream of the node) with DSL or cable, and thus one may have an easier and/or more cost effective resolution than the other. |

| i know how it works.
The article basically states that DSL from Sonic.net & ATT do not experience the same speed issues as Comcast because Comcast uses coaxial and Sonic.net and ATT use copper.
Well actually if they knew anything both experience speed issues is what i meant. Thus you should have realized that. |
