DSL ? which stands for Digital Subscriber Line ? is a great way to get high-speed internet service, without having to get a cable modem, or live in an area that has cable lines. DSL providers have very fast and comparatively cheap internet connectivity.To explain DSL, it is a way to enjoy high-speed internet using your telephone line, just as you would for dial up. Except that it has so many more advantages than a regular internet service could provide. Have a look at some of the great ways that DSL internet can benefit your home or business:- With a DSL installation, you can keep your internet connection open, and still use the same telephone line for phone calls; both incoming and outgoing.- The internet speed that you can obtain with a quality DSL provider is much greater than that of a regular dial-up modem. To compare, you can get an average of 1.5 Mbps with a DSL modem, as opposed to only 56 Kbps with a dial-up connection (that's 10 times faster!).- DSL connection doesn't necessarily mean that you'll need any new wiring.
As long as you have a phone line with which to connect, then you're already all set.- Many DSL providers will supply you with the right kind of modem as a part of the DSL installation.There are a few minor disadvantages to DSL that you might want to note. But it is pretty clear that DSL is far superior than any standard connection to the internet, and if you have the choice, you should most certainly aim for the convenience of high-speed. Some of these disadvantages include:- DSL connections work best when you are located close to the DSL provider's central location. If you are, indeed, close, then this should not be a concern.- DSL internet is faster for receiving than for sending. However, the sending is still a great deal faster than standard internet services.- DSL service is not available universally.
You'll need to check your local suppliers to find out if they are DSL providers. If you want reliable, high-speed internet, then you'll likely be looking into a quality DSL provider to supply you with precisely what you've been looking for..

The current "frenzy" over VoIP seems to focused mostly on BroadBand phones and their predicted replacement of landline phone calls as we know it. But that's just the obvious action on the surface. VoIP technology is & can be much more than that. And company R&D is gearing up in unprecedented ways to prepare for that surprising leap in expectation. Notice I said expectation.
Seems the old business model in Telco was that whatever the companies came up with is what the consumer would take. The companies drove the market & what was in it...including any technology "advancements" and their application, distribution, etc. Remember.....we had dial-up internet....then DSL, cable, & satellite access. Now WiFi & soon reliable WiMax deployment. We had high cpm PSTN / POTS residential phone calls....then we had bundled local/LD....
then flat rate LD. Now Broadband phone (VoIP). We had bulky analog cell phones then digital/PCS, text messaging, and now sleek video cellular. But that...

FCC Ruling on DSL Re-Monopolizes Phone Networks Says California ISPs
SACRAMENTO, CA (ContentDesk) August 8, 2005 -- The California ISP Association (CISPA), the largest state association of Internet service providers, reacted today to the U.S. Federal Communications Commission's ruling today that high-speed DSL Internet lines should be classified as an "information service" instead of a telecommunications service. The ruling would allow large phone companies to close their DSL networks and exclude independent ISP's from the DSL market. The result is that most ISPs would be eliminated from the broadband market."The FCC's version of what it calls "deregulation" is simply just a re-monopolization of a network that has been publicly regulated and paid for by rate payers for more than 100 years. This is not leveling the DSL playing field.
The FCC is putting a fence around the playing field and giving the keys to a few phone companies with armies of paid lobbyists, letting the phone companies decide who can play in the broadband game.Consumers and businesses...
