 | said by binded2:dsl needs to become what dialup has already became um, no. There's a great amount of people that will never be able to get anything else. Currently, VDSL2 is the ultimate limit of DSL tech right now...sure there's newer technologies that will be coming, but, for now VDSL2 is the limit. Even then, it'll only benefit those who are extremely close to the DSLAM; once you're out a little ways, it equals ADSL2+ in your definition, which is only able to deliver a max if 24 megabits down and 1 megabit up, without being bonded.
Personally, I wish there wasn't any particular definition of broadband or "high speed"; it just sets a lowest common denominator for telco and cableco to cling to. |
