Broadband Internet — Digital Subscriber Line Speed
Information on Digital Subscriber Line Speed
The various DSL connections provide different tradeoffs between uplink and
downlink speed, and different ranges of speed. The Digital Subscriber Line Speed available to a customer depends on the limitations of
the network and the policies of the service provider. For
example, a service provider often charges a higher rate for
the highest speed DSL connection.
The speed experienced by a broadband
user depends not only on the Digital Subscriber Line Speed, but
on the amount of congestion in the ISP's network and
external network connections.
