Can you answer Brian K’s question about DSL?:

I was wondering if it’s possible to get high speed internet without going through a phone line. I live in rural Iowa, and our phone company doesnt over high speed. I know that you can get it through cable, but we already have Dish network so that wouldnt work.

Is DSL Available In My Area

    DSL Feedback: You can subscribe to satellite broadband. While it is slower than DSL and Cable, it is faster than dialup.

    DSL Feedback: there are several options available for people in rural areas. One option would be a wireless card which actually uses a USB port in order to connect to the network. If you have seriously good phone service (cell phone) this can be a pretty good solution. But remember you must have a fantastic cellphone service for instance be right underneath the tower. What a lot of people don’t realize is that you can actually use a USB adapter and obtain the same results as if you was using a laptop with a PCMCIA card.

    DSL Feedback: Satellite broadband is fast but usually have a definite download limit which if you go over can cost you. Also if you want to use it for gaming your ping would be high which could be make it unplayable.
