Adsl Or Cable?
« on: December 04, 2008, 10:44:00 AM »
Speed bursts aren't really going to matter, but if they are both 10mb I'd go with DSL simply because it is a dedicated line, cable is shared with everyone in your neighborhood and if lots of people are downloading prime time it's going to lag you up, although I don't experience these problems on my cable connection. Either way I'm sure you'll be fine, but as I said DSL is not shared so if it's not more expensive I'd say go for it.

if you live near the telephone exchange get ADSL otherwise stick to cable,

personally i would rather get cable as you can get faster speeds on it
