In fact with DSL your speed should never vary. Unlike Cable.
You're referring to the fact that with cable, your service is

With xDSL, your service is shared between the DSLAM and the CO.
That's just one hop later than with cable. Either way, slowdowns
happen as the user load increases. If the ISP - regardless of type
- hasn't provisioned things well, you're stuck.

I didn't know that. Because of my past experience with SDSL and my
perceived improvements since of xDSL.
Good to know!
