Re: Comcast threatening to cut my service?!

i've had both...if i remember correctly, you get higher u/l speeds with cable than with DSL...but it really all depends on yer package and whats available in yer area...

one plus to DSL--i haven't noticed as much fluctuation in speeds with DSL, due to an influx of people online in the local area, was much worse when we had cable...you could always tell when everyone got home from work and got online...and i don't think most DSL providers shape and limit like the cable providers

the worst however are the satellite providers...expensive as hell, not much better than dial-up, and more than 1 or 2 torrents a month would've had my pipes bottlenecked...absolute shite
