yellow,能讲讲为什么吗，上次我仿佛看一帖说CABLE比ADSL容易出问题。但觉得应该CABLE更稳定啊 -quieter(随便吧); 2001-8-27 (#181014@0)

for the ADSL, you have to dial up to get the access, this dialing is fast, but it's still a dail up. That's the reason I pick the cable. -yellow(yellow); 2001-8-27 (#181088@0)

Use ASDL if you are living in an apartment, otherwise either way would be fine. ASDL is kinda stabler more or less. -guest:depends; 2001-8-27 (#181021@0)

P.S. There is promotion for both Rogers cable and Sympatico ASDL...120 rebate for the first half a year from Rogers, 19.90 /moth for the first half a year from sympatico -guest:depends; 2001-8-27 (#181023@0)

谢谢depends，看来你也认为ADSL更稳定？CABLE为什么容易出问题呢？我头脑里有些先入为主的概念，总认为CABLE比ADSL更专业:) -quieter(随便吧); 2001-8-27 (#181036@0)

I have used both, Cable is not stable since it's built on the cable Tv network, which on average is 30 years old, so there are lots of physical problems with the infrastrue, but it's hands down, faster, no questionsthere, ADSL mainly had to deal with technical difficulties since the current telephone network in canada is merely 15 years old or so and it's better maintained since it's not generally exposed like the cable tv system. -slimpiggy(瘦猪犹如插翅虎); 2001-8-27 {223} (#181042@0)

Major down time and especially Rogers caps the node per person quota, I am still using Cable, Shaw Cable was pretty good, when it was still around -slimpiggy(瘦猪犹如插翅虎); 2001-8-27 (#181083@0)

every saturday night, and whenever it rains severely -slimpiggy(瘦猪犹如插翅虎); 2001-8-27 (#181207@0)

Is there any difference between Shaw and Rogers? -goodbaby(小宝); 2001-8-27 (#181216@0)

Shaw no longer has a presence in Eastern Canada -slimpiggy(瘦猪犹如插翅虎); 2001-8-27 (#181221@0)

谢谢depends,讲得真清楚:)最近有一种病毒闹得ADSL的MODEM感染，总断线，所以我的朋友在想找一个更稳定的上网。谢谢depends！ -quieter(随便吧); 2001-8-27 (#181068@0)
