Sometimes. DSL in AZ is worse then the software I use on my sony mp3 player. They have zero support here for anything above 6mbit and Qwest customer service/support is nonexistent. I had cable for almost five years, it might have been down twice, several times they increased my speed with no price increase. They have now gone from 5 to 18 mbit and next year will be at 25, all at little cost increase to customers. Qwest charges 26 minimum up to 45 a month for 1.5mbit service. No email, no usenet. I've called many times to see when they are going to upgrade the lines to some respectable speed, Qwest reps have told me 'never'. They have no plans to do anything in AZ. I had faster speeds 7 years ago then i do now. I'm sure in some places dsl is better, but then again that's not DSL it's fiber, which is not DSL. But the blanket statement dsl is better then cable is not so true.
