Default DSL is not Broadband (Was EMBARQ DSL - is this considered a "normal" deal? Experiences with EMBARQ DSL?)

In my opinion, most DSL is just not fast enough to be called broadband.


Speed has nothing to do with broadband. Broadband is a networking
technology, while speed is a characteristic of a connection. You
can have very slow broadband, just as you can have very fast
baseband. Or you can have any speed you want on some other
networking technology.
