ADSL in rural areas?

Hi guys. Recently saw an ad on google that advertised that there was wireless internet from Acanac. Although the google ad was completely inaccurate, i did see your promo for ADSL broadband. I read the description of the service and it stated that this service uses "traditional" telephone lines to deliver internet.

While that's fine and dandy, i'm not sure that regular old phone lines can provide that service. Especially to Utopia (which is 3km from Barrie). Am i wrong in assuming that "traditional" phone lines can only deliver 56k speeds? I'd like to think i'm wrong, as my Rogers portable internet service is erratic (downloads are up and down and latency is through the roof) and i would like to get something more stable. Can anyone clarify?

Hi,
If you send me a postal code, I would check the database if DSL service is available. (Use the messaging system please).

Today, even the old phone lines are "pushed" by modern technology and they deliver decent speeds.

Regards.

I spoke with a bell representative online today, and he told me that "DSL wasn't available in my area." I was talking about ADSL and he was talking about DSL.

We are sharing the same database. If bell service is unavailable, all other Standard DSL providers would be unavailable, too.
