Hi gang - I am getting unhappy with my 56k dialup method and want to switch either to cable or to DSL. I can do both in the area where I live - or rather I can do _either_ - and I would appreciate it if someone could outline for me the considerations in choosing between the two. I cannot expect much support either from my cable company or from my phone company on the Linux side. My present ISP is affiliated with our cable TV provider and if possible I want to stay with them. They are parochial but worthy. My sense is that a reliable local ISP is a better bet than a nationwide access super provider. Tha;nks for any advice.
