Re: what about speeds

said by King P See Profile :

How about some DSL providers increase their speeds, or roll out some new technology. I could care less of who has more subscribers...you know? Although I do find it interesting that DSL outranked Cable in this quarter, especially considering the speed difference.
6000kbps/768kbps for $27.99/month - DSL is the best bang for your buck (provided you live close enough to a CO or RT!).

Or you CO is even equipped for DSL, ours isn't. I have Adelphia HSI, 6100 down and 850 up, it's fast all the time and low latency. I wish we could drop the price, 56 a month for that speed (Premier Tier). Cable serves far more people here than DSL, this is a very rural area, and many people live well beyond the CO's (we're 19,000 cable feet from ours), and there are few RT's.

There are some wireless outfits in Mendocino County too, but due to the mountainous terrain here, are EXTREMELY limited in range and coverage, and more expensive.
