[Solved]ADSL?

[JeffRoe]

What is this and why should i be using it instead of DSL?

[!Nick?]

Its a lot better than dsl.

[lex]

DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) really just relates to the technology.

ADSL (Asymmetric DSL) is just one of the DSL family, the most common.

Asymmetric meaning that the download & upload speeds are different, i.e 512 kbps/64 kbps.

There's also SDSL (Symmetric DSL) where the download & upload speeds are the same.

And there's more:

HDSL (High Data Rate)
VDSL (Very High Rate)

& several others.


The chances are, if you already have a DSL connection, it's almost certainly ADSL.

You might want to educate yourself a little too. Try some research.

Hi Jacko,

I appreciate your intentions, though your editing is rather kind to gigi350 & sort of makes
my response look out of context.

So, just for the record, gigi350 originally called me a (insert insult of your choice here) & declared
categorically that there was no such things as VDSL or HDSL.


:D
