Cable vs DSL
Thinking about cable instead of DSL?
 | Cable Internet access is a shared connection that suffers from peak time slowdowns. With DIRECTV DSL, you have a dedicated connection that is uniquely yours, so you don't experience online "traffic jams". |
| Most cable providers do not provide a static IP address with their basic service, but DIRECTV Broadband does! With a static IP address you can host your own Web site and games, and establish a secure connection so you can telecommute with your office. |
| You won't have to wait for a technician to set up your DIRECTV DSL**. We do all of the work outside your home and then send our award-winning, easy-to-install gateway for you to use at NO ADDITIONAL MONTHLY COST†. |
| DIRECTV DSL allows you the freedom to connect multiple computers with our optional Connect & Protect package. As many as five members of your household can surf the Internet at the same time††. With cable Internet access, you will most likely be required to purchase or lease multiple modems. |
| Simply put, cable is a thing of the past. DIRECTV DSL delivers more features with greater ease and convenience, along with the confidence that you'll enjoy from being part of the DIRECTV family! Compare us with other technologies |
