heres what it comes down to. (i did the research recently)
Cable is capable of speeds higher than dsl, and it really will some of the time, but is inconsistant. in fact you wont get a cable company that will quote your down and up speed. Cable speeds also depend on how many people are subscribing in the area since it is after all a WAN. (if you have cable you must use a router with firewall. otherwise people in your neighborhood can view any shares you set up.) dsl is more consistant and reliable but you have to have a phone line (some just use cell phones).
i went with cable. i have even hit speeds of 1.8 down. sometimes i think about switching. but i dont want phone line.
