I currently have Time Warner Cable in my apartment. They advertise 7 Mbps down and 512kpbs up. In reality, I get about 6.5 down and 450 kpbs up - I am perfectly fine with that. What I am not fine with is the service. I constantly lose packets to servers and get an average ping of 200 to a ventrilo server based in dallas (where I live). On the good days, I get about 9 ping. I have been on and off the phone with customer service for the past 5 month trying to get them to fix this problem. They send a few people over, who do absolutely nothing but a ping test. I have about had it.
ATT offers DSL in my apartment too. They have a plan thats 6mpbs down, and 768 kpbs up. In theory, the connection is about as fast, if not faster than my current setup. But with dsl, will I notice a difference?
