Got allot of porn surfing neighbors that get off work at 5 and your bandwidth is toast, during the day and late evenings, it is stellar.
DSL is a guaranteed bandwidth!

That's a good point for many cable networks, Rodney. But, some newer and updated cable networks have improved topography and have filled a lot of the first mile and beyond legs with fiber.
Of course the earliest, daisy-chained cable networks were/are the worst!
I have SBC's highest speed DSL and am very happy with it. My parents are on a newer cable network in Dallas and their speeds make my 5-6Mbps seem limp.
