Cable but it doesn't seem any faster than the DSL was (only more expensive) The cable guy said it was because most computers aren't fast enough to keep up with the speeds.... so then its basically useless, right?

I've been Boo'd...
Thanks Barry!

Maggie,
I didn't slap you, I just high fived your Face!I've Been Boo'd!!
The speed of a cable internet connection fluctuates greatly.
They run common lines to many houses (The hocks on the street are hubs, rather than discrete line connections), and your connection speed is determined by how many people are currently using the service and how much they are downloading.
DSL, on the other hand, is a dedicated line.
The one eyed man in the kingdom of the blind wasn't king, he was stoned for seeing light.
We have FiOS - fiber optic from Verizon. It's great, more reliable than Comcast was, but not on your poll, and not available everywhere yet!
I have the slow old Dial up. From where I live, I can't get anything else yet. Not far from where I live, they have DSL. I'll be glad when we get it here.

We enjoyed and supported our cable modem for a long time. Then it really got screwed up, aand after many, many months of going through it, we finally switched to DSL. We also have a wireless network in our home. Unfortunately, our desktop computers (two of them) have died on us!!!!!I am on my husband's laptop, right now. The DSL has been pretty good. It is a 3.0 connection, but plenty fast for what we need.

I'm not sure exactly what it is (as far as DSL or anything) but I know we have Roadrunner. However, we also get our Cable TV from the same line, or almost same line. I'm not too internet savvy, if you can tell.![]()

No matter what Ted and Terry wrote, Jack and Liz love each other.
Roadrunner is cable. We have Optimum Online, and were one of the first to get it in our area, cashing in on a promo 4 years ago.
