A Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) provides uninterrupted, high speed Internet and Network access on a standard phone line. It offers simultaneous data and voice capability allowing you to talk on the phone while surfing the internet, using the same phone line. DSL is an "always on" connection enabling you to connect with the click of a button, eliminating busy signals and the time spent waiting for your modem to establish a connection. Data travels on its own dedicated line between your home or business and the telephone company's central office, so other online traffic in your neighborhood won't slow you down. What used to take minutes to download now only takes seconds!

How it Works
DSL uses the existing twisted pair copper wire already available to every customer, making installation much more cost effective. Since modem transmission only uses a small portion of the available amount of information that could be transmitted over copper wires, DSL can travel millions of bytes per second of data vice the thousands of bytes per second transferred with a modem. Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) is the most common form of DSL available to home and small business owners. The bandwidth is divided between the upstream and downstream allowing for the fastest possible transfers, when a user sends a request for a web page, only a small amount of data is uploaded compared to the amount of data downloaded to display that page.
