I have tried DSL and cable, and of course dialup. While I found cable very fast, I found DSL much more reliable as far as uptime. Whats your experience and whats in your house/office?

Cable = Home

Krusty · 09-26-2004, 06:10 AM

I've got 1.5 Mb DSL - as far as I'm aware it's pretty much the fastest we have available in Australia... it's "fast enough"

NaughtyAlysha · 09-26-2004, 06:11 AM

3mbps cable.

mardigras · 09-26-2004, 06:16 AM

Mine is advertised as "up to 3mb" dsl, I usually average about 2.3 on speed tests. Next door has cable and I am almost always faster than them.

Dax · 09-26-2004, 08:35 AM

I got the 3 mbps dsl line. And I usually get 2.8 or about.

Minte · 09-26-2004, 08:48 AM

I fly solo on a T1 at my office.Cable at home.

FlyingIguana · 09-26-2004, 08:50 AM

i have cable, thinking about getting dsl but i don't have a land line. plus the line in my room is crap so i'd have to pay to get a technician to fix it. its bullshit.

Vitasoy · 09-26-2004, 08:50 AM

Same here on both responses... can never go back to 56K when cable offers 3Mbit

almighty · 09-26-2004, 09:12 AM

i always found dsl speedsvaried and cable more stable on transfer rates but the oc3 line works great

Your download speed : 2250030 bps, or 2197 kbps.
A 274.6 KB/sec transfer rate.
Your upload speed : 402209 bps, or 392 kbps.

speed test from dslreports.com

i have optimum online cable, speeds are usually really good i've had it for over 2 years now and it's never down except for blackouts or things of that sort

gornyhuy · 09-26-2004, 10:11 AM

cable 3mb

Tom_PMs · 09-26-2004, 10:15 AM

Cable.

Interestingly, in my area the people who try DSL complain alot about spotty uptime whereas the cable is the stable one. Guess it depends on your providers as much as the type of service.

tony286 · 09-26-2004, 10:21 AM

My wife has t1 and I have cable , I find the cable to be faster and its been pretty reliable but not as reliable as the T1

I had Insight Cable when I was in Louisville. The tech support sucked ass and it was never their problem when it was down. Once they sent 3 different techs out to my house to check for problems before they figured out that a tech who upgraded something on a pole about 6 blocks away didnt quite get it put back together right. Took about a week before enuff complaints were made by folks in the neighborhood before they finally got it thru their thick fucking heads it was them and not us

Strife · 09-26-2004, 10:42 AM

5 mbps cable here

Mike Panic · 09-26-2004, 10:47 AM

dsl - its $20 less per month then cable, and i get 1500/500 speeds (dslreports.com tests)

one of the local cable companys is now advertising 7 mbps connections... but they are not available yet

eiht_98 · 09-26-2004, 10:47 AM
