The Use of ADSL Connection for Internet

ADSL is the perfect broadband solution for home and small businesses. Learn about the technology and compare it with other service options to see if DSL is right for you.

DSL and ADSL

It's an "always-on" connection to the Internet. DSL stands for Digital Subscriber Line. It provides high speed and secure Internet connectivity over existing copper telephone wires.

It can be up to 50 times faster! With DSL, surfing the web and sending e-mail occurs at speeds approaching instant. Downloading files with graphics and video can take just seconds.

Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) uses the plain twisted pair wiring already carrying phone service to subscribers' homes to transmit video signals and high-speed data to the home. ADSL uses adaptive digital filtering to overcome noise and other problems on the line.

Is DSL Reliable?

Yes! DSL is a dedicated line. In addition, Hubris Communications monitors all business class services (including ADSL) at three minute intervals 24 hours a day.

Will It Tie Up My Phone Line?

DSL is always on, yet your regular telephone service is uninterrupted. Because of this, you can still use your telephone for talking or sending faxes while surfing the Internet. You don't have to dial-up each time you want to check your e-mail or visit a website. Just launch the Internet program you need and jump in.

The Value of DSL

DSL is a great connectivity solution with many advantages over more expensive services. Find out how the reliability and affordability of DSL service from Hubris Communications add up to a great value for your home or small business.

DSL is the answer to this problem, providing affordable, high-speed Internet access at a low monthly cost.

How Does DSL/ADSL Compare to Cable Internet Service?

DSL is a fast, secure, one-to-one connection. Cable has some inherent drawbacks. First, the cable network is shared, which means as the number of cable users increases, the speed on each individual's line decreases. Second, a shared network is less secure than a dedicated service like DSL, as neighboring cable customer can more easily intercept data or hack into another user's computer. Third, the upstream speed on a cable modem is generally no higher than 128 Kbps. DSL is available with upload speeds of up to 1.5Mbs.

How Does DSL Compare to T-1 Lines?

DSL is not for all businesses. Although DSL is generally reliable it is not as reliable as a traditional T-1. Businesses that need very high reliability and a quick mean time to repair when something goes wrong may need to remain with a ...
