How fast is your DSL? It looks like your provider's DSL tops out at 50/5, which I suspect is not available everywhere, while fiber starts at 25/25 and goes to 100/100. I rather like the 100/100 symmetrical bandwidth on my fiber. I can assure you that 100/100 feels noticably faster than 25/5 even though nothing here would use even 25Mb sustained. R's, John
