Which one is better: DSL or cable?



When choosing the right broadband connection , is quite hard to pick up between a DSL or cable connection.
If both technologies are available in your area, I would suggest to go with cable. It’s the hands-down winner. It is faster, more reliable, doesn't have the distance restrictions and other things that cause problems with DSL. If cable Internet is not available in your area and you can only get DSL, it is still a lot better than dial-up.
