I can't wait near T1 speed at a fraction of the cost.

Patrick,

I think DSL lite is the Rockwell innovation. The downlink speed (4 channels at 1.5Mbps) and the uplink speed (3 channels at something like 750kbs). The neat thing about C(consumer)DSL is that it requires no splitter on the consumer end, unlike ADSL. Which means no service calls from the telcos.

Re. replacing modems soon for ADSL. I recently got cable modem access to the net thru Comcast. It cost within a few dollars a month of the total I was paying for a second phone line and to my ISP. You couldn't get me to settle for slower service and give up my Motorola cable modem. Scott

Pat you asking me for advice,very flattered but I have no idea what I am doing myself.<vbg>

However I did hear by 2000 24% of all internet connections in the U.S will be via cable modems. If ADSL guys can prove theirs is a better deal then perhaps the vendors of ADSL products might be a good idea.

Don't hold your breath. xDSL is held captive to the RBOC's inability to innovate -- and to let go of their lucrative T1 revenues
