ADSL is the common solution for fast internet, well its gonna get faster.
Introducing ADSL+2.
Many ISP's are doubling the speed provided for customers, and they need the ability to push on from where we are now. The limits of the standard internet we have now are showing, for example Hi-Def TV won't stream at any less then 20mb's unless you want to completely ruin the experience and IP TV needs over 8mb's.
So brace yourselves because i am sure 2006 will be our year!

When they built around my area, General Telephone (now Verizon) used undersized copper phone line, so Phoneline DSL is out. I do have Charter Cable, but i dont think they will be increasing the speed of that anytime soon
