Do remember the days when getting hooked up to the Internet sounded like your computer was dialing up NASA and standing by for further transmission? Perhaps you still hear the screams and buzzing of dial up service every time you simply want to check your e-mail or surf in cyberspace. Maybe it’s time for you to enter the real computer age with DSL technology.
DSL still uses the telephone connection through a modem, but it instead delivers high speed service to both personal users and businesses. DSL’s digital capabilities instantly connect your computer to the Internet without taking your phone line hostage. (How many important phone calls are you missing if your service provider ties the phone line to connect you to the net?) But not only does it deliver Internet service, DSL can also serve as technology to bring you features like: streaming audio and video, videoconferencing, online games, application programs, telephone calling and other high-bandwidth services.
There’s lots of techie mumbo-jumbo to describe just how DSL works. But for the consumer there are really only a few simple things that matter. DSL is faster, more convenient and easier to use. For both the personal computer user and companies, it is the best way to deliver computer services. Saving time and money are essential factors in both personal and corporate finance. DSL is one aspect that can assist in either financial realm.
