Here’s what you need to know about the internet’s speed and how to test it.1.
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second.
Broadbands are generally slower than DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) lines and are generally not available over DSL lines.2.
Broadcasts are generally limited to 1,000 megabit per second (Mbps).
A few networks are offering broadband at 2,000Mbps, but most of them are limited to 2Mbps.3.
A broadband connection is a transmission of data.
A data transmission is a way to carry data.4.
The faster you go, the faster the data can travel.
You can use your DSL connection to upload video, audio, or photos to your smartphone or other device.
DSL and cable internet are faster than fixed line internet.5.
Broadcast quality is measured by the amount of data sent to and from the Internet’s backbone (the network of computers that link computers together).
The more data, the higher the quality.6.
DSL Internet (also called DSLNet) is a network of dedicated fiber optic cables.
DSLNet provides a faster connection to the Internet.
DSL is cheaper than fixed-line service and is available over much of the country.7.
Cable internet is a fixed line service that uses cable wires to provide internet service to homes and businesses.
It is more expensive than DSL and requires a cable subscription to use.8.
Fixed-line broadband services can only be used in areas where DSL service is available.
DSL service and cable services are not available in every state.9.
Fixed line internet service is more affordable than DSL service.
DSL services are expensive.
DSL internet is generally slower to connect to a phone than DSL.10.
Cable is a service that lets you connect to another person’s computer, laptop, or tablet.
Cable TV is typically cheaper and faster than DSL internet.11.
DSL/cable internet is often more expensive, especially for homes with small homes.
DSL lines are usually much more expensive.12.
DSL or cable internet is available in some places.
DSLnet services are available in all states.13.
DSL broadband internet speeds are often more consistent and reliable than fixed internet.
DSL speeds vary depending on the type of service provider, your location, the number of customers you have, and other factors.14.
DSL-only service is usually a service where the DSL network is limited to a few areas in your neighborhood.
DSL networks can reach other areas of the city.
DSL only service is often cheaper than DSL Internet service.15.
DSL+cable services are a service for the fastest speeds in a small area.
DSL connections can be up to 100 times faster than cable connections.16.
DSL providers may offer speeds up to 10 times faster.
DSL companies may offer DSL speeds of up to 5 gigabits/second.
DSL, cable, and phone service providers generally offer speeds of 10 times the speed of DSL.17.
DSL data caps are often lower than DSL rates.
DSL prices generally don’t vary significantly by state.18.
DSLs and cable can offer the same speeds.
DSL rates may vary depending upon the type and location of service.19.
DSL may be slower to access than DSL, but DSL Internet speeds generally aren’t slower than cable Internet speeds.20.
DSL does not have to be on at all times to access DSL Internet.
In many places, DSL Internet can be used to access a variety of applications and entertainment content.21.
DSL has fewer legal restrictions than cable internet, and DSL Internet is often faster.22.
DSL users may be required to use a tethering device to access the Internet while away from their home or office.
DSL tethering is often considered a form of “virtual private network” (VPN) to protect users’ privacy.23.
DSL can be a great choice for people who work from home or who work in remote locations.24.
DSL doesn’t have to carry a data cap, so DSL Internet services can be cheaper than cable services.
DSL offers a range of speeds and plans.25.
DSL vs. cable is a confusing concept.
DSL isn’t like cable or phone.
DSL comes with an unlimited number of channels.
Cable and phone services carry a cap.
Most DSL Internet plans are based on the speed that the service provider offers, not on the actual number of devices you have.26.
DSL customers typically pay more for their service than they pay for a cable or wireless internet service.
In some cases, DSL service can be more expensive for certain services than cable or telephone services.27.
