Re: Other way bucko

low speed DSL is not feasible for home use, never has been, but everyone ignores it. The only possible way for a DSL company to profit off their equipment and lines is to charge for installation, and keep a customer for at least a year, usually 2 or more before a profit is shown.

From what I know, each DSL line is hooked into a router that holds so many connections, that router costs a lot of money, cable doesn't work that way, so the only cost is bandwidth, compared to bandwidth and extra equipment.
