Both technologies use a SONET backbone have QoS in place. DSL uses a DSLAM so
the traffic is seperated. Cable on the otherhand utilizes spread spectrum
polling so resource hogging is not really a issue. Cable is faster, but
services like Cox block certain protocols so it's harder to host a website.
Personally I like SBC DSL. The speed is great and they also have SBC Freedom
link (http://www.freedomlink.com ) which gives you acess to a bunch of hotspots
for only $2 a month.
I don't know what "freedomlink" is, but the URL you give just gets me
to the SBC AT&T Wi-Fi order page, where I could start to negotiate for
ordering service. Search for freedomlink using their search engine
gets me even farther into the service ordering, as they now want to
know my current phone number, and maybe also address.
Maybe Google can find more without trying to suck me in to an order page.
