Ever wonder what the difference is between Cable and DSL high speed internet providers? DSL is the newer broadband access that delivers digital data over your analog home phone line. Because DSL isn’t delivered over your cable which is sharing bandwidth with other consumers on your street, your incidence of interruption is lower and typically your connection is faster. Cable will divide bandwidth between both cable consumers and internet users, which increases the likelihood of a slower connection and interruption. So, if you want to take advantage of a more reliable, smoother connection, a DSL connection would be your better bet.
