The simplified bootstrap criteria allows you to assign a /24 to each CMTS in your network. If you think an allocation based on these criteria will not be sufficient for your needs, then you should not apply under these criteria. For more information, see section 10.1 of APNIC guidelines for IPv4 allocation and assignment requests.

EarthLink DSL offers high-speed access over your phone line; EarthLink Cable uses a cable TV line. DSL offers instant connections of up to 3.0Mbps, which is 70X faster than regular dial-up*; Standard Cable offers a 5.0Mbps connection, which is more than 100x faster than regular dial-up*; Premium Cable offers an 8.0Mbps connection, which is nearly 200x faster than regular dial-up.* There's no waiting or dialing in with either, and you're free to use your phone and the Internet at the same time.

We has signed contracts with several National DSL Providers, including SBC, BellSouth, COVAD, New Edge Networks and Qwest. All have a proven track record and exciting plans for continued excellent service to our customers.

with any internet connection your provider is sharing access (bandwidth) with all of it's customers, so your most limiting factor is the amount of bandwidth the ISP has, Cable and DSL charge enticingly low rates for what they call "high speed access", which might seem like a good thing, but charging so little means there is not enough money coming in to provide the bandwidth needed for your customers, so typically you will find your connection slows drastically when other people are using it hea.

Our service is up to eight times faster than 256K DSL and nearly twice as fast as most cable. DSL and cable modem upload speeds can be much slower (128-384Kbps) than the download speeds (512Kbps-4Mbps). With our service your download and upload speeds are the same. For example, if you subscribe to our Residental Plus service you get a Asymmetrical, 384/512Kbps sustained service - download and upload, with downloads bursting to between 3Mbps and 7Mbps and uploads up to 1.5Mbps.

In most cases, yes. If not, we'll provide equipment for you at no charge. EarthLink Wi-Fi, however, requires specific equipment. Costs may be associated with the necessary equipment.

Yes and no. DtDNS is not concerned with the type of connection you are using to operate services, only the content. It is, however, against the acceptable use policies of many cable and DSL providers to operate such services on a personal connection.

We have no problems with you running legal services, either commercial or hobbiest level. However some cable and DSL providers do not allow their subscribers to operate such services on a personal connection, so you should check with them first.

Most of these services are not available in much of our service areas. Cable modem and DSL are all dependent on physical wires, and a middle man ( i.e. phone company). With TazWire Wireless, there are no wires, and you deal directly with us-there is no middle man. TazWire Wireless wireless data transmission rates are comparable to cable modem or DSL.

Sure, you could do that, but it's not a good idea for several reasons. First, a vast majority of ISPs won't let you legally use a residential cable modem or a DSL line to host a public server. You would have to get a more expensive business package. Second, ADSL and cable lines usually have lower upstream bandwidth than downstream bandwidth, so your site may appear to be sluggish under heavy traffic. Third, DSL and cable lines have a much lower reliability than dedicated T1 or better lines.

In most cases, no. Some graduate residences may have existing coaxial cable infrastructure (for cable TV), which will allow them to subscribe for cable modem service at their discretion. Fraternities, sororities, and co-ops, particularly those which are privately-owned, may also have existing cable TV or non-Cornell phone service which could support cable modem or DSL.

No. To maintain proper security you MUST first disconnect any system that will dial-up from a cable modem or DSL service. Users of cable modems or DSL service should consider using the Secure Nomadic Access service. The FAQ for SNA is here. SNA provides Web-based, secure, high-speed access to internal Headquarters computer resources.

By taking advantage of 32bit Fax, you can now send faxes via the Internet from your computer in conjunction with an Online fax account. Regular fax programs cannot send faxes over the Internet. ie: DSL, Cable Modems, T1... These are not modems that can interface to the phone line, which is what a fax needs to be sent.

Superior customer service because we are a local company and can be at your location within hours if necessary.

DSL provides a dedicated service over a single telephone line. Cable modems offer a shared service over a cable network. Customers have the opportunity to choose a package and speed that match their needs. There are more packaging choices available with DSL, including services that a business may desire such as static IP addresses.

Xecunet DSL provides high-speed internet access directly to you over your telephone line, whereas cable modem offers high-speed internet access over a cable television line which means the bandwidth would be shared with everyone in the local loop. This then means that cable-modem access may slow down if there are too many people using it.

A Cable connection uses a cable line and DSL uses a phone line to access the Internet. Both Cable and DSL connections work well with FirstDigital service, but DSL service will require that you maintain a basic landline connection through the DSL provider. First Communications does not provide DSL or Cable Internet, so you will need to establish service with a separate provider.

Your broadband connection must have at least 90 KBPS upstream and downstream available for each phone line. Your cable or DSL modem must have an Ethernet port. USB-only modems are not supported.

Cable Internet uses your Cable TV line, and you would be able to disconnect all your current phone services if you would like to use Viper Services exclusively for your local and long distance calling. B) DSL connection uses a local phone line that must be maintained by your local phone provider.

Cable companies provide television, music, data and other services over the same cable loop in your neighborhood. There is a limited amount of bandwidth available on these neighborhood nodes which can service a large number of homes and businesses. This means that if a neighbor or nearby business is using a lot of bandwidth, it is possible that there would be little left for the rest of the customers on that node which would result in very poor performance.

DSL provides always-on high-speed Internet access over a single dedicated telephone line; cable modems offer always-on high-speed Internet access over a shared cable television line. While cable modems have greater downstream bandwidth capabilities, that bandwidth is shared among all users in a neighbourhood, and will therefore vary, perhaps dramatically, as more users in a neighbourhood get online at the same time.

While DSL and cable modem services perform the same basic function, providing high-speed Internet access, the methods that they use are very different. Cable modem connections transfer data using a coaxial cable that connects the end user to a cable modem termination system (CMTS) and the to the user's Internet Service Provider.

Although they are both 'broadband', cable internet and DSL are different. Cable uses the high-capacity pay television infrastructures rolled out by Telstra and Optus a few years ago. DSL uses the existing copper telephone infrastructure to deliver high speed broadband via technology installed at your local exchange.

For many families and businesses, DSL and Cable Internet access are prohibitively expensive, in terms of both the monthly fee and the fixed cost associated with "wiring" a building. DSL and Cable providers also insist on "bundling" their services with others, such as television or telephone service. Additionally, these providers do not offer outdoor service, an increasingly sought-after feature.

Many DSL modems have NAT router functions incorporated, which most cable modems generally do not have. If the NAT router function of your DSL modem does not support SIP pass-through, or is not SIP friendly, you may need to configure the DSL modem to act as a bridge. This can also be true with modems that have certain built in firewall features, which prevent some VoIP signaling and voice traffic.

Check with your current Internet, telephone or cable company for information on what is available in your area.

Firstly if you don't have regular land line phone, more people are ditching their regular phones to get cell phones, then a cable modem would be your first choice. DSL requires you to have a pre existing phone line. With DSL your phone line can has to "qualify" for the DSL service. In plain english this means that you have to be a certain maximum distance from the telephone exchange to get DSL.
