Even with all of the options out there for Internet access, the truth is that not all Internet services are right for everyone. Depending on where you live and your budget, you will do better with some Internet services than others.

Compare broadband, cable, satellite, DSL, dial-up, and wireless Internet to see which will be the best option for you. Use the chart below to get a rough idea of how different services compare. We have excluded wireless service from this chart because that term refers to so many different kinds of service that it would be too difficult to compile all of that information into this one chart.

DSL Internet Access

DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) Internet access is Internet service delivered through analog telephone lines. Analog telephone lines are the lines of the original telephone system. So, if you already have an analog phone line currently connected to your home, then you should be eligible for DSL phone service.

Advantages of DSL

DSL provides very fast and high quality Internet service. DSL service includes a very high bandwidth because telephone lines have a lot of room for data transfer. This means that you can use the Internet and make telephone calls at the same time, and support many Internet users all at once.

DSL lines are also very secure. Generally, DSL lines are harder to hack into than cable modems, so you shouldn’t have to worry about any unauthorized users.

DSL lines are also very durable. As easy as it is to lose power in bad weather, you are pretty unlikely to lose functionality from your telephone lines. As a result, you shouldn’t need to worry about severed lines except in the most severe circumstances.

DSL is frequently a good choice for fast Internet service for people who live within close proximity of their service provider. The closer you are to your service provider’s central location, the better your Internet connection will be.

Disadvantages of DSL

If you don't already have a phone line connected to your home, it can be prohibitively expensive to get one. Depending on the situation, whether you just need to replace a phone line, or you need to install one in a home that has never had one before, it can cost well upwards of $200 to install a new line.

In addition, it can be very difficult to get DSL service if you live too far away from a central service provider. In fact, most service providers have an upper limit for how far they can provide service, around three miles away from their server location.

This means that you generally can’t get DSL in remote locations, so you will have to check to see if you qualify for DSL service.

DSL may also be more expensive than cable and dial-up. With AT&T, DSL service will cost between $14.95/month and $42/month depending on how much bandwidth you want. However, if you are out of the service range for AT&T, DSL can be very expensive with some smaller local companies. For example, Speakeasy DSL can cost as much as $99.95/month.

Cable Internet Access

Cable In ternet is an Internet access service provided by a cable company. If you are already using cable for your TV or telephone service, then you are probably eligible to get cable Internet service as well. Cable companies use actual physical cables to connect your home or business to their service centers, and through those cables they provide you with a certain amount of bandwidth for your telephone, TV, and Internet use.

Advantages of Cable

Cable Internet service is also known for providing a high quality Internet service with high speed and high bandwidth. If there are only a few users on your cable modem, you may even be able to get faster Internet speeds than DSL.

Cable Internet also has the advantage that you are not so severely limited to a certain location as you are with DSL service. You can be much farther away from the cable companies service center and still get nearly perfect service.

Disadvantages of Cable

However, cable modems are not as good as DSL modems for supporting large numbers of users. So, if lots of people in your home, office, apartment complex, etc. are using the same cable modem, you could start to see very slow service, especially if any one person needs to use the Internet for a lot of high intensity data transfer, like streaming high quality videos or gaming online.

And cable Internet may be a cheaper option compared to some services, especially satellite Internet, but it is not always cheaper. For example, with Comcast Xfinity, you can get Internet service that starts at $19.99/month, but if you want even faster Internet service, it can cost as much as $199.95/month.
