SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. -
Totally depends on your area and what the isp is offering in most cases. I'll take DSL over cable modem in my area however. -
I think that would depend on your location. Proximity to exchange. What plan you got. Etc EtcComment

i'm in vegas and it seems cable is better.

cable (lower ping higher speeds since has no saturation as adsl that cuts of 15-20% of the top speed)Make a bank with Chaturbate - the best selling webcam program

idiots
cable is always capable of faster speeds than DSL
FIOS is currently the fastest if its available although comcast has announced 50mbit/sec to all its customers by mid 2010Mike South

Cable is way faster than DSL in most cases. That is why they came up with FIOS.Comment

In my area
AT&T DSL max speed 6 Mbps/512 kbps
Charter internet 20 Mbps/2 Mbps
Naturally I have Charter. I have had both. Both have worked fine for me.Comment

It's very simple.
Faster? Cable.
Reliable and durable? DSL.
I use cable, and a T1 for my office. That way I am never completely down. I have had more grief with my cable over the years then with my T1. While a T1 is not DSL. I used to work in telco for 8 years. Both business, and residential.
I stand by my statement.

DSL here goes up to 20Mbit downstream and 1Mbit upstream (approx.) and is very stable.
CABLE here goes up to 120Mbit downstream and 20Mbit upstream (approx.) and is not always reliable in speed or connectivity.
Getting both would be bestComment

Correct. I have worked in a number of markets, and DSL has always been more stable then cable. Even with the different cable providers, and different telco's I worked for.
Cable is on a loop, and a lot of your speed is based on the usage of that loop in your neighborhood. If you have a lot of saturation, you are not going to get your top speeds. Plus you can get a lot of variance.
DSL is like a peer to peer, or point to point phone line or data circuit in a way (trying to explain simply). You have a direct connection from the CO to your house. No bandwidth sharing on that line. So it is more reliable and stable. Even if you are 2+ miles out from the CO. You may not get your top speed, but your speed will remain fairly constant.
Note:
BD was in telco as well, so I am trying to address his point, yet not get into all the industry jargon.Last edited by Barefootsies; 05-12-2009, 09:55 PM.Comment

I'd say more often than not cable's better, but as others have said it does depend on location.Want to crush it in mainstream with Facebook ads? Hit me up.Comment

Where I live Cable is the way to go.
I got 50mbit/1mbit up for $79 a month, can't beat it. I can count in one hand how much downtimes I've had in the last 4 years.
I have DSL in some of my stores, down at least an hour a day and can't change because cable doesn't provide commercial in certain areas.Comment
