I have tried both services in different areas of South Florida and I must say that DSL did not compare to my cable modem. I had constant outtages with DSL and it is not an "always on" connection like it is advertised. You have to dial into your DSL connection whereas with cable it truly is "always on", simply click your browser icon and you are on. The consistancy of speed has been much better with my cable service than any of the DSL service I have used. When it comes to support - just remember , when you are using DSL you are dealing with the phone company and if you have ever had that pleasure..nuff said
I'm moving down the hall in my building and I may be switching to DSL. I have Road Runner now with a wireless router and 2 wireless laptops, and I'm totally happy with it.
at&t has a DSL "Elite" $34.99/Month. It's supposed to be up to 6.0 megasomethings which I gather is 4 X faster than Cable. Also I'm about 100 feet from a building that sais at&t on it and has no windows, so I'm thinking that must be a terminal building.
The bottom line is that the at&t package is cheaper and ostensible faster. Has anyone had any experience here.
Thanks,
Ian
