Re: Cable has NO EXSCUSE TO CRY!!! Sure, and the Sun rises in the east. Proponents of DSL can produce many excuses as to why "MY" xDSL connection sucks...but it doesn't change the fact that "MY" xDSL connection sucks. The fact that it's Verizon doesn't change anything. My friends locally who are serviced by Pacbell bitch about their connections too, especially when compared to our local cable providers offering far superior speeds, better latency and better reliability.
There is NO such thing as the "best" connection. Every franchise is different, no matter if it's DSL or cable. In your area, sure, cable may suck, but in mine, I get consistent latency in the teens and I'm always able to reach my 3.8Mb caps while my so-called 1.5Mb DSL service hyperventilates at around .5 Mb. -- -- Munis Killed the Telco Star -- Powered by Barry McKockenner Racing in association with Jack Mikkokov Motorsports |
