Re: The numbers
The shared factor only matters if your area is oversold. If your area is not oversold, cable by far destroys dsl. I currently have 6mbit comcast cable internet and 1.5mbit AT&T dsl. The dsl is always sluggish when doing anything and I am not referring to the slower download speed. If you max out your upload bandwidth on dsl your downloads suffer a lot and ping times shoot through the roof. With comcast I can max out the upload and download and still surf pretty decently. Not to mention normal web surfing is really fast now that they have speed boost.
Although because of price I only have comcast for the summer because they offer it for 20 bucks a month for the first 4 months. |
