Cable is always better unless you have COmcast which is crap.
At&t is crap too, and if their the only providers in your area.... |

Both statements are very general and incorrect in my experience. I had Comcast HSI for years and it was fine. Blazing fast and very reliable. No slow downs that I ever noticed. This was in the Boston area.
Now I have ATT 6Mb Xtreme DSL. I have had at least 2 extended outages (between my house and ATT) in a year with ATT DSL, but they compensated me both times, and in general, it's been reliable. It also costs 2/3 as much ($27.95 as opposed to $42.95 or more). |

| I have had DSL (Bellsouth) for almost 5 years. Very reliable although not the fastest compared to cable. Unfortunately our cable is Charter who cannot keep the service on a week straight. And at least DSL provides backup dial up service in the event they do go down. Cable says tough luck |
